Author: 
 
Ingredients
  • 1 lbs trimmed asparagus
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 Tbsp miso paste
  • 2 Tbsp water
  • ½ tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
Instructions
  1. Put the ¼ cup of water in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Add the asparagus and cover. Steam asparagus for about 5-8 minutes until tender. Drain excess water from asparagus and remove asparagus to a dish.
  2. Put the pan back over medium-high heat. Add the oil, ginger, garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes. Saute for 30 sec to 1 minute until fragrant, but be careful to not burn the garlic. Add the miso paste, water, sesame oil, and soy sauce. Mix together and let cook for 1 minute. It will thicken slightly.
  3. Pour sauce over cooked asparagus and thoroughly coat the asparagus with the sauce. Serve hot.
