Stir-fried Asparagus and Scallops with Belacan





This is one of my favourite dish. I will always cook this, with or without seafood, whenever I can get the thick asparagus.  I just can't get the same kick with the thin Thai asparagus. 



I wished that the price for these asparagus is more affordable though. It's such an expensive dish to cook.




Ingredients:



  • 6 Asparagus, skinned and sliced

  • 4 Scallops, sliced half

  • 2 clove Garlic, minced

  • 2 Shallot, sliced

  • 1 Chilli, seed and julienned

  • 1 teaspoon Belacan, chopped

  • 1/2 tablespoon Cooking Oil




How to do it:


  1. Saute garlic and shallot in oil till fragrant.

  2. Add in chilli, belacan and dried shrimp.

  3. Stir fry for about a minute.

  4. Add in scallops and stir-fry till almost cooked.

  5. Dished the scallops and set aside.

  6. In the same wok, add in asparagus and stir fry till the colour of the asparagus turned a dark shade of green or almost cooked. 

  7. Add in the previously cooked scallops. 

  8. Continue cooking till the scallops are cooked thoroughly.

  9. Add a pinch of salt to taste if necessary.

  10. Dish and serve immediately.






Note:

You may like to replace scallops with prawns or squids.
