Best Stir Fried Shrimp And Asparagus Recipes

STIR-FRIED ASPARAGUS, OYSTER MUSHROOMS AND SHRIMP

Steps:

• Trim and discard the fibrous bottom ends of the asparagus and cut the stalks at a slanted 45 degree angle into 1 1/2-inch lengths. Separate the oyster mushrooms into individual caps. Cut the larger ones in half, so that the pieces are bite-size. Shell, devein and butterfly the shrimp. Rinse and drain well. Chop the garlic finely. Heat a wok over high heat until it is hot and beginning to let off smoke. Swirl in the oil to coat the surface and wait 10-15 seconds for it to heat. When hot, stir in the garlic and follow with the shrimp. Stir-fry 15-20 seconds, or until the shrimp starts to turn pink. Toss in the asparagus and stir-fry half a minute. Add the mushrooms and continue to stir-fry another 20-30 seconds. Sprinkle in enough oyster sauce to lightly coat the vegetables. Stir-well. Then add enough fish sauce to season to taste. Cook until the asparagus is a vibrant green color, tender but crisp. Sprinkle with white pepper, stir and transfer to a serving platter. Serve warm with other dishes in a shared family-style meal.

JOSHUA'S STIR FRIED SHRIMP AND ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• 1. **** If you do not have a wok, use a large , deep, nonstick saute pan instead and toss ingreidients with a wooden spatchula. The wok should never be more than one third full. The food should have room to touch the hot sides of the wok.
• 2. ***** Prepare all ingreidients and assemble them before starting to cook as everthing cooks very fast.
• 3. First, the noodles. Bring plenty of water to a boil in a large pot. Add the noodles and stir to separate them. Remove the pot from the heat. Cover pot and let stand for 6 minutes. Drain the noodles thoroughly in a colander. Toss noodles with 1 tsp sesame oil, if you like.
• 4. Place the wok on high heat for 1-2 minutes until very hot. Add a drop of oil, if it sizzles, it is ready. Ad the remaining oil to the wok and swirl in pan to get all sides. Being very carefull not to spill out. It will start to smoke a little, don't worry but quickly then put the scallions and ginger into the hot oil - they will sizzle. Stir them around vigorously with the spatchula for about a minute, tossing to coat.
• 5. Push the scallions and ginger to one side Add the asparagus and stir for 1-2 mins as you did the other others previous.
• 6. Pour in the sherry and allow to simmer briefly, to allow the alcohol to burn off. Add the soy sauce and stir to mix with all ingedients.
• 7. Add the noodles and toss to mix. Now add the shrimp. Toss a minutes more, not too long as the shrimp is cooked and just needs to get hot. Taste and add more soy sauce if needed. Serve immediately.
• 8. **** I made this with the leek and potato soup. DELISH!!
• 9. Just thought i would show how the ginger and asparagus should look before cooking them. (Sorry, should have put at the top first) Peel the ginger first then cut.
• 10. This is how the asparagus should look cut up
• 11. This is how the ginger should look cut into matchsticks.
