Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Trim any fat from the steak and cut across the grain into thin, bite-sized slices. Heat half of the oil in a wok until almost smoking. Brown the meat for 3-5 minutes, then set aside. Separately, cook the asparagus in boiling water for 3-5 minutes (it should still be firm to the bite). Strain and refresh under cold running water. Drain well. Add the remaining oil to the wok, heat to high, and add the garlic, ginger, spring onions, and cashews. Fry for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the meat and asparagus, mix with the remaining sauce ingredients, and cook until the sauce has thickened.
