How to Stir-Fry Peanut Sprouts with Meat

Peanut sprouts stir-fried with meat is a crispy, nutritious, and flavorful dish that’s quick to prepare. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to making it at home.

Ingredients:

- 200g fresh peanut sprouts (washed and drained)

- 150g pork (thinly sliced, marinated with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp starch, and a pinch of pepper)

- 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 chili (sliced, optional)

- 1 tbsp cooking oil, 1 tbsp light soy sauce, ½ tsp sesame oil, a pinch of salt.

Steps:

1. Prep the meat: Marinate the sliced pork for 10 minutes to tenderize.

2. Stir-fry the meat: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add pork and stir-fry until browned. Remove and set aside.

3. Sauté aromatics: In the same wok, add minced garlic and chili (if using). Stir-fry until fragrant.

4. Combine ingredients: Return the pork to the wok. Add peanut sprouts and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes until slightly softened.

5. Season: Drizzle in light soy sauce and sesame oil. Add a pinch of salt (if needed, as soy sauce is salty). Toss everything evenly.

Serve hot with steamed rice. The dish balances the crunch of peanut sprouts with the savory pork, making it a delightful meal. Enjoy your homemade creation!
