SPICY ASPARAGUS STIR FRY (INDO-CHINESE FUSION RECIPE)
This is a twist on the Chinese way of preparing stir fry using a super healthy food (asparagus) as the star of the dish. Asparagus is very easy to cut and cooks fast and hence fits in on any busy weekday. I love this dish because it combines a super food (asparagus) in a spicy, tasty side dish recipe. Serve Spicy Asparagus Stir Fry (Indo-Chinese Fusion Recipe) with Vegetable Fried Brown Rice Recipe, Tofu Fried Rice Recipe or as a part of Naked Burrito Bowl Recipe. Did you know : 1 cup of asparagus gives 2/3 RDV (recommended daily value) of folate (iron). Asparagus is very high in anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits while being rich in antioxidants (cancer prevention) and natural fiber. This food promotes heart health and helps regulate blood sugar.

Steps:
- To prepare Spicy Asparagus Stir Fry (Indo-Chinese Fusion Recipe) heat a large wok, take about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil (or cooking oil) and sauté the ginger garlic paste until the raw smell goes away.
- Now add and onions until slightly soft. Don't soften it too much as we want the onions to retain some of their crunchiness.
- Now add the asparagus pieces, some salt and cover the wok with a lid to cook them for about 5-7 minutes. This is where you want to be careful. Asparagus gets cooked very easily and you want the resulting dish to yet have a bright green colour rather than having a dull colour.
- Once cooked, add the soy sauce and chili garlic and let the whole thing cook for about 2 minutes.
- Do a taste test to make sure salt and spice is up to your taste. If you think it's too spicy you can add a little brown sugar to sweeten the dish.
- Finally, garnish and serve with chopped spring onions.
- You can serve Spicy Asparagus Stir Fry (Indo-Chinese Fusion Recipe) with Vegetable Fried Brown Rice Recipe, Tofu Fried Rice Recipe or as a part of Naked Burrito Bowl Recipe.
SIMPLE SPICY ASPARAGUS IN A WOK
Asparagus doesn't have to be treated as a delicate, fragile thing, napped only with butter or creamy sauces, or served plain with olive oil and salt. That's fine for the first week or two of the season, but then it's time to dial up the interest factor and add some spice. Asparagus actually stands up quite well to aggressive flavors. A quick toss in a hot wok with garlic, ginger and chiles doesn't overwhelm it at all, at least if you don't overcook the spears. Instead, the vegetable's sweetness becomes accentuated by contrast.
