PORK AND ASPARAGUS STIR-FRY
I got this recipe from a Canadian Living Magazine. Our family really liked it. I used sherry, but you can use Chinese wine. You can use a different kind of mushroom if you prefer. I served it over rice.

PORK AND ASPARAGUS STIR-FRY
We jump on asparagus the second we see it at the market this time of year, but green beans, snap peas, or any other crisp green spring vegetable would also be great here.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tsp. peanut oil in a large skillet over high. Once pan is hot (oil will be lightly smoking), add half of asparagus and a couple pinches of salt and cook, tossing only once or twice so the pieces have a chance to blister, until crisp-tender and lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer asparagus to a plate. Add 1 tsp. peanut oil to skillet (no need to wipe it out) and repeat process with remaining asparagus.
- Reduce heat to medium-high; add remaining 1 tsp. peanut oil to skillet, then add pork, spreading out into an even layer. Season with a couple pinches of salt and cook, undisturbed, until meat begins to brown underneath, about 2 minutes. Break up meat with a wooden spoon and add scallions, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring, until pork is crisp and mixture is very fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add wine and soy sauce and return asparagus to skillet. Cook, turning to coat with pork mixture, until heated through, about 1 minute.
- Transfer stir-fry to a platter or large shallow bowl and drizzle with sesame oil. Serve with rice and chili crisp.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: For stir-fries, tender cuts like pork tenderloin or pork loin are best. These cuts are lean and cook quickly, so they won't toughen up.
- Slice the pork thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. Aim for slices that are about 1/4-inch thick.
- Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and spices will help tenderize it and add flavor.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: A hot wok or skillet will help sear the pork and prevent it from sticking. Make sure the pan is hot before adding the pork.
- Stir-fry the pork in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan with pork, or it will steam instead of fry. Cook the pork in batches, if necessary.
- Add the vegetables towards the end of cooking: Vegetables cook quickly, so add them to the stir-fry towards the end of cooking. This will help them retain their crunch.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really brings a stir-fry together. Use a store-bought sauce or make your own using soy sauce, rice wine, and other seasonings.
Conclusion:
Pork and asparagus stir-fry is a quick, easy, and healthy meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's packed with flavor and vegetables, and it's sure to please the whole family. So next time you're looking for a delicious and healthy meal, give pork and asparagus stir-fry a try!
