Greetings!
Today is another day that I got to cook with my family, especially for my wife because the dish that I am going to cook today is her favorite. To cook it my wife has to drive to the market today just to buy the ingredients. She said it has been a while since she ate the dish and she is craving for it. The dish is called "Ginisang Toge" or "Sauteed Mung Bean Sprouts". I actually not into this dish until I met my wife. But when my wife introduced it to me I fell in love with it. It is so simple, yet tasty, maybe because of the tomatoes and the tofu. This is also a versatile dish because you can make it into spring rolls by wrapping it with a spring roll wrapper and then frying it.
So, without further ado, here's how I cook this tasty dish...
- Mung Bean Sprouts or Toge (500 grams)
- Tofu (150 grams)
- Carrots (110 grams)
- Tomatoes (120 grams)
- Onion (small, 1 piece)
- Garlic (small, 2 cloves)
- Cooking oil (about 4 tablespoons for frying the tofu and sauteeing)
- Salt (2-3 pinches of salt)
Wash and slice the tomatoes
Peel and slice the carrots into strips
Peel and slice the onion
Peel and slice the garlic
Wash and slice the tofu into frying slices
Wash and prepare the Mung Bean sprouts
1. Fry the tofu until golden brown on both sides
2. After frying slice, the tofu into a small square then set aside
3. On the same frying pan reduce the cooking oil then sautee the garlic and onion
4. Add the tomatoes
3. Add some water to make the boiling of tomatoes faster, and add some salt
4. Stir occasionally until you get this consistency
5. Add the carrot strips
6. When the carrots strips are about to be cooked add the Mung Bean sprouts
7. Stir so that the tomatoes onions and garlic will be spread evenly
8. When the Mung Bean sprouts are about to be cooked add the sliced tofu
9. Stir to spread the Tofu evenly
10. Turn off the heat and it is done
That is all for now guys, catch up with the next one. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.
