Author Notes
This is one of my favorite Chinese vegetable. Cooked right, it comes out juicy and tender- also packed with good nutrition.
To make it simple and consistent, I've simplify this dish by blanching the sprouts (instead of stir-frying) and mixing it with the beautiful sauce. The result? Healthier and delicious!
