I'm going to have to repeat myself. (sorry). I love asparagus. It's a so versatile, you can try to do everything with it, only, please don't steam the hell out of it, that would make me sad.
This particular success is the end result of a culinary experiment. It's fantastic. This would be awesome with roast chicken and rice. I ate it standing at the counter reading back issues of Vogue, but it really does deserve a special place at the table. Srsly. Try this, it's awesome.
1 bunch of asparagus
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Olive Oil
1 clove of garlic, minced
3 Tablespoons Zinfandel wine
1/2 cup water
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
Red pepper flakes
Toast sesame seeds in small fry pan. Set aside.
Add oil to large 12" fry pan (with lid) or a wok.
Heat oil on high, add asparagus. saute for a minute, stirring to coat spears with oil.
Add minced garlic, stir for another minute.
Add wine and soy sauce red pepper flakes and water.
Bring to a boil, cover with tight fitting lid, simmer for about 3 mins, or until the sauce is reduced to a light sauce and spears are tender crisp.
