Togue or mung bean sprouts is the most widely recognized type of bean sprouts which are often found in Asian dishes. Their crunchy texture and sweet taste allow them to be cooked in many different ways, including, adding them to noodle soups or making lumpiang togue which is also a popular snack and street food in the Philippines. You can also stir-fry them on their own, or as in this recipe, along with a meat of some kind such as pork, mixed vegetables, and tofu!

Ginisang Togue (Mung Bean Stir Fry)

Eating bean sprouts is a healthy, natural way to add vitamins and minerals to your diet. They are low in calories, high in protein, and contain almost no fat and they are cheap and easy to find! Almost every wet market have them.

In this Ginisang Togue Easy Recipe ( Mung Bean Sprout Stir Fry) I added some quail eggs because it pairs well with bean sprouts, but if you’re vegetarian or in a no meat diet, you can simply remove the pork and eggs. It’s equally satisfying as a main dish or a side.

If you are refraining from eating rice, you can use this ginisang togue recipe as a whole meal since it is already packed with tofu and vegetables or pair it with Philippine Egg Roll also know as lumpia.
