Asparagus With Ginger Asparagus recipes are usually about steaming or boiling. This method takes a little more effort but the result is worth it and makes for an unusual side dish. It will also give you a bit of excercise. You need the following: 1 bunch fresh asparagus 3-4 slices of fresh ginger 1 tbs olive oil 1/4 cup chopped nuts such as cashews, almonds or similar salt and pepper to taste Prepare the asparagus by snapping off the woody ends and peeling it carefully from just under the flower down. This gets rid of any stringy bits. Slice the asparagus spears into bite-sized pieces. I usually do this on the slant to make the presentation that bit more interesting. Now put the oil and ginger in a skillet and heat it through. Let the ginger sizzle for about 30 seconds and then discard it. Add the asparagus pieces and cook by holding the pan just above the heat and shaking continuously for about 4 minutes, or until the asparagus is crisp. You could also do this in a wok, which might be easier. To finish, add the chopped nuts and season with salt and pepper.
