Notes
- A delicious ginisang togue is not only about the flavor but also texture. Make sure to cook on high heat so the vegetables stir-fry nicely instead of steaming into a soggy mess.
- Drain the vegetables well and do not add any liquid during cooking as the bean sprouts have a high water content and will dispel liquid as they cook.
- Stir-fry the bean sprouts briefly, just until they're heated through. To keep them as crisp as possible, take them off the heat while still a bit raw as they will continue to cook in the residual heat.
