Asparagus, as we all know is a very healthy thing which is rich in vitamin k as well as vitamin B1. It contains anti-oxidant properties. Asparagus nourishes the digestive tract and is a good source of fibre.
I like to prepare asparagus with a twist. Just add few peanuts in the dish and it is a boon to the taste bud.
Let's start...
Ingredients needed: (For one person)
6-7 Asparagus cut into halves.
Ghee or Oil (According to your choice).
Peanuts - 15-20 (or more if you like).
Black pepper powder.
Garlic- 1 clove-Peeled n cut into small pieces.
Salt.
Step 1: Put half a spoon of ghee/oil in the frying pan.
Step 2: Let it heat for a while and then put the Asparagus in it and stir it occasionally. You can cover the pan when not stirring.
* You can put the flame on medium low as this will allow the asparagus to cook nicely.
Step 3: After 5 minutes put the peanuts in the pan and stir.
Step 4: Wait for 2 minutes and add the garlic into it.
* Garlic is added at this point as if you put garlic at the beginning, it will burn off by this time and not smell good.
Step 5 : Add salt according to taste and stir for about 2 minutes.
Step 6: Add a pinch of black pepper powder.
Your dish is ready to serve.
It's a healthy and tasty dish which can be taken either for breakfast or as evening snacks with a cup of tea :-)
