Greetings!
Here's a dish that is my wife's favorite and it is actually one of my favorites too! I always eat a lot of this dish whenever it is served to me. I love to just buy this dish and eat them right away because cooking it takes quite some time since it is cooked twice. But cooking it on your own is very rewarding because you can eat it while it is hot (which is best to eat while it is hot).
This is also versatile because you can eat it on its own or you can eat it with rice, you can dip it with vinegar/onion/ground black pepper, sweet & sour sauce, and even with catchup but I prefer dipping it with vinegar/onion/ground black pepper.
This dish's main ingredient is sprouted mung beans that can be bought from local markets anywhere in the country. You can also add some cabbage to it.
So, without further ado, here's how I cooked this very delicious dish...
- Bean Sprouts (Toge/Mung Sprouts)
- Tofu (Tokwa)
- Sweet Potato
- Green Beans (Baguio Beans)
- Tomato
- Onion
- Garlic
- Ground Black Pepper
- Spring Roll Wrapper (Lumpia Wrapper)
- Salt (to taste)
- Cooking Oil
Prepare the bean sprouts by washing it with water
Slice the Tofu into frying sizes
Peel and slice the sweet potatoes
Slice the green beans
Wash and slice the tomatoes
Peel and slice the onions
Peel and slice the garlic
Prepare the ground black pepper
Prepare the Spring Roll Wrapper
1. Fry all the sliced Tofu
2. When it turns golden brown flip it then continue frying the other side
3. After frying let it cool
3. After all the fried tofu has cooled down slice it into cubes then set it aside
4. Sautee the garlic, onion, and tomatoes in a cooking oil
5. After sauteeing add some water to boil the tomatoes
6. Add some salt, add more later if needed
7. When the tomatoes have become saucy add the green beans
8. Add the sliced tofu
9. Add the sweet potatoes
10. Stir
11. Add some water, enough to submerge all the ingredients, then let them boil
12. When the green beans are about to be cooked add the bean sprouts
13. Add the ground black pepper
14. Stir
15. When all the ingredients are cooked and if the taste is now okay turn off the heat and let it cool
16. When the cooked bean sprouts are already cool, get some and put them in a spring wrapper
17. Then roll it (4 steps)
18. Do the same until you wrapped all the cooked bean sprouts
19. On a frying pan, heat some cooking oil then fry the wrapped bean sprouts
20. Flip when the other side turns golden brown, do the same to the remaining wrapped bean sprout and it is done...
That is all for now guys, see you next time. Wishing you all safety, good health, and abundance.
