This is my all time favorite way of cooking my bean sprouts. As I don't buy salted fish, I substitute it with dried anchovies. I posted my recipe in 2006 and now I re post it again by adding dried bean curd. It added protein to this delicious dish, very suitable as a vegetarian dish as well and it combined protein with fiber.
Ingredients:
~ 1 big bowl of bean sprouts
~ 2-3 cloves garlics, chopped
~ 2-3 Scallion, cut into 2 inches length
~ 1/2 pack of fried bean curd, cut into thin slices like shown above
~1/4 cup dried anchovies, washed and drained
Seasoning:
Salt to taste, 1 tsp. chicken stock granules & 1/4 cup water.

Method:
Heat oil in a wok. When hot, add in dried anchovies, stir-fry until anchovies turned crispy and brown then add in garlic. Stir well and add in the bean sprouts. Give a few good stirs and add the fried bean curd, seasoning and water. Let it simmer a little while and then add scallions in the last few seconds. Stir well and dish out. Serve hot.
Note: Do not overcook the bean sprout. It should remain crunchy.
