Stir-Fried Shrimp/Prawns & Asparagus
Ingredients
* 400 g. aspargus
* 200 g. white shrimp/prawns, shelled
* 1 tbsp. tapioca flour mixed with 2 tblsp. water
* 1/2 tsp. ground white peppercorn
* 1/2 tsp. light soy sauce (Healthy Boy brand preferred)
* 2 tbsp. oyster sauce (Mae Krua brand preferred)
* 1/2 cup soup stock
* 1/4 cup vegetable oil
Preparation
1. Place wok on medium heat and pour in the oil. When it is hot, put in the garlic and saute. When it has yellowed, add the shrimp/prawns and aspargus, turn up the heat and stir-fry on high heat. When nearly done, turn down the heat.
2. Season with the stock, oyster sauce, pepper and soy sauce. Turn up the heat and when the liquid comes to a boil, pour in some of the tapioca flour-water mixture to thicken the sauce. Then dip out onto a plate and serve.
Note: Asparagus should be stir-fried quickly so that it is done yet still crisp.
