Thai Sweet Asparagus
From Minnie: We LOVE fresh asparagus recipes! We like it boiled or broiled, or stir-fried or steamed, or roasted or in soups, or just about any other way it can be prepared! It is one of our all-time favorite vegetables. Consequently, we try to keep frozen asparagus on hand for those times when we either run out of fresh asparagus and do not want to make a special trip to the market to get more…or when the market just does not have the best looking fresh asparagus. Here’s a yummy recipe for those times:
This recipe uses ingredients from Thai Kitchen
- Frozen Asparagus Spears
- 2 tablespoons Sesame Oil
- Salt pepper, & garlic to taste
- 2-3 tablespoons Thai Kitchen Sweet Red Chili Sauce
-
Defrost asparagus and pat dry. Cut into bite-sized pieces, if desired.
-
Heat oil in a medium sized skillet until hot.
-
Add asparagus, salt, pepper, and garlic.
-
Cook for about 6-8 minutes, until tender and slightly browned in spots.
-
Pour Thai Kitchen Sweet Red Chili Sauce over asparagus and stir gently to coat well.
-
Serve immediately.
DISCLAIMER: Kelli was sent a few Thai Kitchen item to review, but Minnie is more of a Thai eater, so she got to try the things out. No money exchanged hands and any opinions are our own.

February 28, 2012 at 11:29 amI think my kids would love this too. Surprisingly, they love the flavour of thai. I never thought of using thai on veggies…….especially asparagus. I bet this will be a fav in our house.

February 18, 2012 at 11:48 pmI am always looking for ways to serve asparagus instead of just steamed with butter, but dont like anything too strong along with it. I look forward to trying it.
