I wanted to make a dish using simple ingredients. This was cheap and easy yet delicious, so it's become a family favorite.

1 bag of bean spouts will result with lots of sauce, which is enough for 2 to 3 servings. If you want to increase the servings, use 2 bags. You can double the volume for just 50 yen or so, so it's an economical dish. Just increase the bean sprouts to 2 bags and use the same amounts of the other ingredients.
Since this is a Chinese style dish, cook the egg over high heat until browned. The base ingredients are so inexpensive, yet this is a very elegant tasting dish. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Usagyo
