Ingredients

2 pounds Asparagus, (only the tender portions)

2 tablespoons Sliced onion

3 tablespoons Oil

3 tablespoons Soy sauce

teaspoon Sugar

2 tablespoons Sherry

1 pkt Powdered beef broth, (i.e. MBT or Herb Ox)

teaspoon Cornstarch mixed, mixed with:

3 tablespoons Water

Preparation

Wash asparagus and cut diagonally about 2 inches long and 1/4 inch thick.

Heat oil, brown onion a little; add asparagus cooking over a high heat until its color turns bright green. Mix soy sauce, sugar, powdered beef broth and sherry together; add to asparagus, and thicken with cornstarch mixture. This same recipe can be used substituting broccoli, mushrooms or string beans for the asparagus. Enjoy
