Asian Asparagus (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Produce

01 - 1 bunch fresh asparagus (about 450g)
02 - 1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
03 - 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, chopped

→ Pantry

04 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
05 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce

→ Garnish

06 - Toasted almonds (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Wash asparagus thoroughly and cut into 4-5cm pieces.
02 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
03 - Add asparagus pieces to the skillet. Cook while stirring frequently until asparagus is crisp-tender, about 3-5 minutes.
04 - Stir in the chopped ginger. Add soy sauce and cook just until it begins to bubble, then immediately remove from heat.
05 - Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with toasted almonds if desired. Serve immediately while hot.

# Notes:

01 - For best results, choose asparagus spears of similar thickness for even cooking.
02 - The asparagus should maintain some crispness - be careful not to overcook.
