 Don't
limit this sauce combo to only asparagus. Try it with
green beans, snap beans or snow peas. It's a quick and
easy way to spice up plain green veggies!
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
2 tsp. sugar
5 tsp. pure sesame oil
2 garlic cloves,
chopped
2 lbs. asparagus
1 Tbsp. sesame seeds
 Cut
the ends off asparagus at a diagonal so that 2-inch
tips are produced. Set aside. Dry toast sesame seeds
in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly,
until aroma is released and seeds are slightly browned.
Remove from heat and set aside.
BEWARE: Sesame seeds can go from slightly toasted
to burnt in seconds!
 Stir
soy sauce and sugar in a small bowl until sugar dissolved.
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add
garlic and stir for 15 seconds. Add asparagus and stir-fry
for about 4 minutes. Add soy mixture and toss until
asparagus are coated, about 1 minutes. Remove from heat.
Season with salt and pepper Transfer to a serving dish
and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
