Food and home.


Isn't it interesting how we associate certain foods and tastes with different locations and/or memories? One food dish that always makes me think of home is stir-fried pea sprouts. We don't have it that often anymore. In fact, usually we have spinach. However, tonight we had pea sprouts and it was delicious.

Stir-fry Pea Sprouts

Ingredients 
1 lb of pea sprout
1-2 cloves of garlic crushed
Splash of oil (vegetable, olive or peanut)
Salt to taste

1. Add oil to bottom of wok (or giant pan) and put on medium-high heat on stove.
2.  Add crushed garlic to wok
3. When hot, add pea sprouts and stir-fry!
4. Add salt to taste while cooking.
5. Serve while it's steaming hot with some white rice. Mmmmmm.

Enjoy!
