Sesame Bean Sprouts Recipes

KONGNAMOOL (KOREAN SOYBEAN SPROUTS)

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the bean sprouts, and cook uncovered until tender yet still crisp, about 15 seconds. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the bean sprouts are cold, drain well, and set aside.
• Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, chile powder, garlic, and sesame seeds together in a large bowl. Stir in bean sprouts and toss until well coated with the sauce. Sprinkle with green onions and season with rice wine vinegar. Refrigerate before serving.

SESAME BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Get a pan on a medium heat and add in the olive oil.
• Slice the Brussels sprouts in half and place them flat side down into the pan for 3 to 4 minutes. You're looking for them to go golden so don't be tempted to turn them! Season with sea salt and black pepper.
• Slice the spring onions on the diagonal and add to the pan around the sprouts.
• Cut the butter into slices and add to the pan around the sprouts and spring onions.
• Slice up your red chile and scatter into the pan, adding the seeds if you're feeling brave!
• Add the soy sauce and sesame oil and give it all a good toss. Add in your water to ensure they cook through for about 3 to 4 minutes. This will also create a sauce for your spouts.
• In a separate pan, toast your sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally.
• Serve on a plate and scatter over the browned sesame seeds.

SESAME GREENS AND BEAN SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Toast the sesame seeds in the pan until lightly brown and fragrant. Pour the seeds into a small bowl to cool. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until tender, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic, cabbage, and bok choy; stir-fry until cabbage is wilted but still slightly crisp, about 5 minutes.
• Add the bean sprouts, oyster sauce, and sesame seeds, and cook for 2 minutes. Season with a dash of black pepper and serve warm.
