1tspsoy sauce
Instructions
Snap off the bottom of asparagus at where it naturally breaks. Discard the bottom parts (or save them for making veggie stock.) Slice the remaining parts thinly and diagonal. The thinner the slices are, the quicker they cook. Set aside.
Heat up a frying pan at medium high. Pour sunflower oil then add garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not burnt.
Add asparagus. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.
When they are tender enough to eat, add lime juice and soy sauce. Give a quick stir for 30 seconds and remove from the heat.
Serve immediately. Squeeze more lime juice (optional.)
Notes
It’s perfect to serve with some rice or quinoa!
If you like firmer texture, slice the asparagus thicker and/or cook for shorter time.
