Asaparagus Recipes For Spring!
The arrival of Spring means it's the beginning of asparagus season! Asparagus has numerous health benefits - it contains folate which is essential for heart health, and is loaded with anti-oxidants. Here are several Chinese recipes featuring asparagus, from main dishes to simple vegetable stir-fries and an easy 5 ingredient asparagus salad.

Curry Shrimp For Two
Feel free to vary the vegetables, and to turn the heat up or down by using a milder or stronger curry powder as desired.

Chinese Steak With Peppers
While in many areas it's not quite warm enough to get out the barbecue and start grilling, you can get a taste of what's to come in this recipe featuring steak and sweet bell peppers stir-fried in a spicy barbeque sauce.

Five-spice Chicken
Five-spice powder (available in Chinese/Asian markets and the spice section of many supermarkets) adds an extra kick to the marinade. The recipe includes instructions for either broiling or grilling the chicken.
