Sookjoo Namul

Seasoned Mung Bean Sprouts

This is my first attempt at homemade Korean food.

  • 2 cups mung bean sprouts
  • water to cover
  • 2 T chili paste
  • toasted sesame seeds
  • green onions
Step 1
Put the sprouts in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, cook for two minutes. Drain.



They got greener as they cooked.



Step 2

Chop up the green onions and put them in a bowl.



Step 3

Add the sprouts and the chili paste to the green onions. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and stir.



I used this kind of chili paste, by the way.



Yummy!!


I eventually added just a little bit of soy sauce, too. It isn't exactly like the seasoned sprouts that I had at Uh Wool Lim, but it's an okay substitution for now. I'm pretty sure there was some type of vinegar in the restaurant version.

Enjoy!!
