The sauce can be prepared up to 1 week in advance....freeze for up to 2 months. The asparagus can be cooked early in the day and rinse with cold water. Reheat quickly in boiling water. I found that there was too much sauce for our liking, so I cut the recipe in half. Weight Watcher friendly = 1 point Ingredients:
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed |
2 tablespoons ketchup |
1 tablespoon black bean sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon sesame oil |
1 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1 teaspoon ginger, minced |
1 1/2 lbs asparagus, trimmed |
1 teaspoon sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Sauce: In a small skillet, whisk together sauce ingredients. Heat gently just until warm, about 1 minute.
2. Either steam or boil asparagus for 3 minutes or just until asparagus turns bright green and is tender crisp. Drain. Pour sauce over top. Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds.
