Ingredients
- 6-8 oz (175g-230g) asparagus
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 1 inch (2.5cm) ginger peeled and sliced thinly
- 6-8 medium-sized shrimp peeled and deveined
- 3-4 fresh shiitake mushrooms sliced
- Some sliced carrots
Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 8 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
- Cut 1 inch (2.5 cm) off the bottom stems of the asparagus. You may peel the skin off the stems with a peeler (optional). Rinse the asparagus under water and drain well. Mix the sauce ingredients and set aside.
- Heat a wok and add cooking oil until hot. Add ginger and stir-fry until light brown and aromatic. Add shrimp, mushrooms, and carrots, and stir quickly until the shrimp is half-cooked.
- Add the asparagus to the wok and stir quickly. Pour the sauce mixture into the wok and continue to stir-fry until the sauce thickens. At this point, the asparagus should be nicely cooked.
- Dish out and serve immediately with steamed white rice.
Notes
- When buying asparagus, always try to choose the most tender ones with thinner stems, which have less fibers.
- If you have time, peel off the outer skin of the stems using a peeler.
