Potato and Asparagus Stir-Fry

I have tried several recipes with Asparagus before. This is one vegetable that has good nutrition, but I always need to search for recipes to make something spice and nice with it. Grilled Asparagus with sea salt sprinkled it self tastes so good and is my favorite of all Asparagus recipes. It tastes good in your omelets also and i even made cute rafts for kids with it.. This vegetable is very tender and gets cooked very quickly. Today I have just paired it with the all-time favorite vegetable Potato and made a stir-fry and the result is fantastic and delicious... You have to try this, here is the recipe, Enjoy!

Potato Asparagus Stir-fry
Ingredients:
Potato - 3 medium
Asparagus - 1 bunch ( medium)
onion - 1/2 medium
green chili - 1
garlic - 1 tbsp
Oil - 1 Tbsp
salt - 1 tsp
red chili powder - 1/2 tsp
cilantro (coriander leaves) - 2 Tbsp

Preparatory Steps:
Wash and peel the potatoes. Chop into half and boil them in the stock pot of water (with 2 cups of water) for 5 - 7 min. Drain these and set aside. Potatoes should be medium soft. Chop them into small size cubes.

Method:
  1. Heat the non-stick pan and add Oil. Once the oil is hot add the chopped garlic.
  2. You will get the nice aroma of roasted garlic,that's when it cooked right (after 1 min). Add Chopped Onion and Green chili. saute them well. 
  3. Add chopped Asparagus. (chop them into small pieces, just like beans) to the pan. fry for 2 min. then add boiled potato cubes. Add salt and fry on high for 3 minutes.
  4. Add red chili powder, 1 tbsp cilantro and Stir fry fry for 5 minutes.
  5. Taste and adjust the seasonings, switch off the heat and transfer it to bowl and top with remaining cilantro.


You can serve this with rice or as side dish. This goes well with your wraps or burritos as well.
