A delightful stir-fry dish combining fresh asparagus, shiitake mushrooms, and roasted cashews in a savory sauce.
Prepare the asparagus by snapping off the tough ends and cutting into 2-inch pieces.
Use fresh asparagus for the best flavor and texture.
Heat the wok over medium-high heat and add the sesame oil.
Ensure the wok is hot before adding the oil to prevent sticking.
Add the ginger to the wok and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir constantly to avoid burning the ginger.
Add the asparagus to the wok and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Keep stirring to ensure even cooking.
Add the mushrooms and continue stir-frying for 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Slice the mushrooms evenly for consistent cooking.
Add the cashews and soy sauce, tossing gently to combine.
Add the soy sauce gradually to adjust the seasoning to your taste.
Serve the stir-fry hot, garnished with additional cashews if desired.
Pair with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
