Fried Asparagus and Long Beans


Went to Asian market and bought some long beans last weekend, had it fried together with Asparagus.  Long bean is commonly served spicy in my home country where it is fried together with some spicy source like Sambal/red chili.  Since my two little lovers can't take spicy food and for the fact that i don't have any spicy ingredients in my kitchen except the Tomyam paste, i added a bit of the Tomyam paste and the taste is amazing.    

Ingredients:
  • Asparagus
  • Chinese long beans
  • Pork meat, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp chopped garlic
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Tomyam paste
  • 1 TBSP Cooking oil

Steps:
  1. Trim off the tough ends from the asparagus, cut the Asparagus on the diagonal into 2-inch pieces
  2. Cut the long beans on the diagonal into 2-inch pieces
  3. Place a wok/stir-fry pan over high heat, add the oil, swirling to coat the sides
  4. Add the garlic and green onions, cook and stirring until fragrant
  5. Add the pork meat and cook for about 1 min
  6. Add the long beans and stir fry until almost tender, about 2 mins
  7. Add the asparagus and continue stir fry, add some water if necessary
  8. Add the soy sauce, sugar and tomyam paste, stir well
  9. Cover the wok with lid and cook till the asparagus is tender
  10. Transfer to a serving plate and serve
