After three months of deep freeze, spring is finally in the air! One of the first signs of spring at the grocery store is the appearance of asparagus. I picked up a bunch two days for this delicious Sesame Beef Asparagus Stir Fry. Thin juicy slices of top sirloin steaks are paired with tender crisp asparagus in this quick and easy stir fry, perfect for weeknight meals.

Asparagus

Asparagus are perfect for stir fries because they cook very easily. There is no need to parboil them first. Simply saute the asparagus in the pan with a tablespoon of oil to keep them nice and crisp. Remove and only return them to the pan towards the end of cooking.

Stir fry served with steamed rice and soup.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb flank steak (often sold as stir-fry beef) or top sirloin steak still partially frozen (450g)

  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
