Asparagus Cooked Like Ferns

You can find background for this recipe in Korean Spring Picnic.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh asparagus
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts, coarsely chopped

Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus. Cut the stalks on the diagonal into 1-1/2 inch lengths.

Heat the sesame oil in a medium skillet or wok. Add the asparagus and stir-fry over high heat for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce and broth, then cover and simmer on low until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes.

Place the asparagus on a platter. Reduce the sauce, then pour on top and cover with a sprinkling of toasted pine nuts.
