Ingredients
8 cups or about 1 lb. pea sprouts- 8 cloves garlic
- 3 Tbs. peanut oil
- 1/2 – 1 tsp. sea salt, to taste
- 1/2 – 1 tsp. sugar, to taste
- 1 – 2 Tbs. water – only as needed
Heat a wok until the surface is smoking hot. Swirl in the oil to coat the wok surface and allow to heat up until it is smoking. Stir in the garlic, followed a few seconds later with the sprouts. Stir-fry vigorously to wilt the pea sprouts evenly and keep them from burning. When a large portion of the sprouts has begun to wilt, sprinkle in the sea salt. Continue to stir-fry. If your wok appears too hot and may burn the sprouts, sprinkle in a little water to help cook. Add a little sugar and stir-fry the sprouts until all of them are wilted and cooked. Pea sprouts wilt down quite a bit – to about 1/4 to 1/3 of its original mass.
There was a link to almost the exact recipe on smitten kitchen today ( the link is on the baked potato soup post- which did not look good to me). I bought the pea sprouts at the asian grocery. I dont know if they sell them at a reglar grocery?
