I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish didn't turn out as good as the pictures. The pork was a little dry and the asparagus was overcooked. The sauce was also a bit too thick. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. The pork was cooked perfectly and the asparagus was tender, but the sauce was a bit lacking in flavor. I would make this dish again, but I would add more seasoning
