Fresh summer asparagus is pan roasted in a combination of fresh garlic and sesame oil. Sesame oil imparts a rich toasty sesame flavor without overwhelming the vegetable.

Make sure to buy Asian sesame oil because the seeds are toasted first, then pressed. Many domestic brands lack the rich flavor of the Asian counterparts.
