Sauteed Asparagus - How to cook in three easy steps

Sauteed asparagus with garlic is an elegant dish served in high-end Chinese restaurants. In this article, I want to share with you the quick and easy method of how to saute asparagus with garlic in less than thirty minutes.

RECIPE:

Ingredients:
300g asparagus
4 cloves garlic
2 tbsp vegetable oil

The stir fry sauce (A)
3 tsp light soy sauce
1/4 tsp dark soy sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground white pepper
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp rice wine (optional)
1 tbsp of water

Cornstarch slurry: (B)
1/2 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp water

Instructions:
- Cut off roughly 3cm from the bottom of each spear of asparagus.
- Peel off the stringy exterior of the bottom half until they got into the tender interior.
- Blanch the asparagus in boiling water for thirty seconds or until the interior turns to semi-transparent.
- Place it immediately in ice water.
- Coarsely chopped a few cloves of garlic, and sauteed until it turns aromatic.
- Add the blanched asparagus, sauteed over high heat for a minute.
- Combine all the ingredients in (A) to make the stir fry sauce. Add to the asparagus.
- Cover the pan for one minute.
- Add a sufficient amount of the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Serve.
