Bean Sprouts

Yesterday went to my mum house.  When I was going home, she walked with me to the shops to buy food for me and I saw bean sprouts at the shop -- Blk 413 Malay shop selling vegetables.  The shop had her bean sprouts displayed outside the shop.  It was rather nice.  So I decided to buy the bean sprouts for cooking Fried Kway Teow Mee for dinner later.  My mother helped me to choose the bean sprouts then she paid for me.  A lot of bean sprouts just for 40cents only.

Back home, I began plucking the bean sprouts.  You can compare the bean sprouts with the soybean sprouts that I had purchased from Redmart.  The soybean sprouts cost $1.53, and the seed leaves or cotyledons were very big and 'crunchy'.  As I was plucking the bean sprouts, I could smell the 'normal beansprouts smell'.  But when I was plucking the soybean sprouts, I did not smell anything.

I defrost some boiled scallops, and when it was dinner time, I cooked them with bean sprouts.  Next, I fried garlic and add the noodles into it.  Added light soy sauce and sweet sauce to it and then crack some eggs into it.  Lastly add the scallops and bean sprouts to it, optional chilli, and that's it.  I fried some hash browns to go along with it.
