BEAN SPROUTS STIR FRY (CHOW MEIN)
My guilty pleasure used to be ordering a yummy pizza but I really don't like takeout pizza as much as my homemade pizza (shameless plug) anymore, so what to do? Well, Mike LOVES Chinese takeout so now I find myself studying the Chinese menu and trying to figure out how to make it healthier!! I love the chow mein! I call it the bean sprouts thingy and it never fails to satisfy. After I made this dish I asked Mike to taste test it and he said it's just as good as the take out (huge compliment), woo woo!

Steps:

- Saute on high for 4 to 5 minutes, until the mushrooms have started to darken and give off some of their water.
- With the heat still on high, add the white onion and celery to the pan; again season with salt and pepper.
- Saute for a minute, until the veggies just start to soften.
- Stir in the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, careful not to let the garlic burn.
- Add in the bean sprouts and again season with salt and pepper; sauté for a minute, until the sprouts just start to soften.
- Take the pan off the heat and stir in the green onions.
- Taste and adjust seasoning.

Steps:
- For the chicken, mix 1 tablespoon of water with the strips of chicken until the water has been completely absorbed by the meat. Add the oil, soy sauce, and cornstarch, and mix until well combined. Set aside for 20 minutes.
- Next, wash the mung bean sprouts in a large bowl of cold water, leaving the bean sprouts in the water for two to three minutes so they are rehydrated. This step not only washes the sprouts but also allows them to absorb some of that cold water to regain their freshness and crunch. Transfer them to a colander, setting them over a bowl or the sink to let the excess water drain completely. The root portion of the bean sprout can be a bit stringy and unpleasant, and some folks do pinch it off--but a word of caution that it is a lot of work, so we usually settle for a good couple of rinses in cold water.
- Finally, prepare the other ingredients--namely the scallions, garlic, and mushrooms. Cooking this dish quickly is really important, so your bean sprouts don't turn to mush. If you're not great adding quick measurements of spices, oils, and sauces, it's best if you have all of those ingredients prepped and measured in advance, in addition to the fresh ingredients.
- Heat your wok on high heat until it just starts to smoke, and spread 2 tablespoons of oil around the perimeter of the wok. Add the chicken, and use your spatula to spread the meat evenly across the wok. Sear for another 20 seconds (i.e., without mixing the chicken around), stir fry for another 20 seconds, and transfer the chicken to a bowl.
- Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok, along with the mushrooms and the white portions of the scallions. Stir fry for 10 seconds, and add the garlic. You should have the wok at the highest heat you can muster at this point!
- Next, add the mung bean sprouts and stir fry everything together. Spread the Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok, and give everything another quick stir. Then add the oyster sauce, salt, sesame oil, white pepper, and MSG, if using.
- Add the chicken back to the wok, along with any liquid in the bowl, and the green portions of the scallions. Again, the burner should be at maximum heat at this point! A quick trick that Kaitlin learned cooking on a narrow stovetop in college is to hold the wok between two gas burners at max heat, to get as much heat as possible!
- Stir-fry for another 10 seconds until everything is well combined, making sure to spread the mixture around the sides of the wok to get that wok hei sear and flavor. There will be some liquid in the wok and when that is bubbling, stir in the cornstarch and water mixture.
- Stir fry for another 15 seconds or so, until the mung bean sprouts are just starting to turn transparent. Serve!

Steps:
- Clean the bean sprouts of their stringy roots and any residual beans. Rinse with cold water thoroughly and squeeze out any excess water, then set them aside to let them dry. If the bean sprouts are still very wet at the time you're about to cook, gently pat them dry with paper towels.
- Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set it aside.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add the garlic. Fry until the garlic begins to brown.
- Add the green onions. Stir a few times to release the fragrance.
- Add the bean sprouts and bring the heat up to high. Cook, tossing occasionally, for 1 minute.
- Add the sauce and continue to cook until the bean sprouts are cooked through but still crunchy, another 2-3 minutes. Taste the bean sprouts and adjust taste by sprinkle more salt, if needed.
- Transfer everything to a big plate. Serve hot as a side dish.

STIR FRIED BEAN SPROUTS WITH SHRIMP
I found a stir fry bean sprout recipe on a web site. I made some changes, and added a few ingredients that we like. We really liked how light yet filling this dish was. We did notice however the soy sauce at the bottom of our plate when we finished. I suggest that the next time I make this, I'll mix a bit of corn starch with soy sauce or water and add it to thicken the sauce up a bit. This can be served as a main dish and serve 2, or it will serve 4 as a side dish.
