Ingredients

• 1 bunch (450 gram) asparagus
• 250 gram white/brown button mushroom
• 4 tablespoon oil, divided
• 50 gram shallot, thinly sliced
• 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2" ginger, minced
• Sauce (mix together)
• 1 tablespoon mushroom sauce (*)
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon corn starch
• 4 tablespoon water

Instructions

1. Trim asparagus, and cut into 2" sections. I cut with the roll cut technique, but you can use any cut you like, like diagonal, or straight cut. Washed and drained. Set aside.
2. Wipe mushroom clean with a clean kitchen towel to remove dirt. Cut each into 4 sections. Set aside.
3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok/frying pan over high heat. Sauté shallot and asparagus until the edges of asparagus brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside in a plate.
4. Add 2 tablespoon oil in the wok/frying pan, cook mushroom and ground pepper together until mushroom is wilted, about 3 minutes.
5. Return asparagus and shallot to the wok/frying pan and reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tablespoon oil, along with garlic and ginger. Mix well, cook 1 minute.
6. Pour the sauce into wok/frying pan. Stir to coat the vegetables. Turn off heat, transfer to a serving plate, and serve immediately.

Notes

• (*) For non vegetarian, you can use oyster sauce.
