How to Make Stir Fried Bean Sprouts With Red And Green Peppers

Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of green bell pepper, sliced, and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Add 2 cups of bean sprouts to the boiling water and blanch for 1 minute.
Remove both the green pepper and bean sprouts with a slotted spoon and immediately rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process and retain crispness.
In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add 1 cup of red bell pepper, sliced, and stir-fry for 1 minute until slightly softened.
Add the blanched bean sprouts and green peppers to the wok.
Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, and ½ teaspoon of rice vinegar.
Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with chopped green onions (optional) and serve hot over rice or noodles.
