Stir fry scallops and asparagus with ginkgo
Ingredients
8 giant scallops quartered
10-12 stalks of asparagus, cleaned and cut into finger lengths
1cup button mushrooms and 1cup straw mushrooms
3-4oz fresh ginkgo nuts
1 small piece ginger, sliced thinly (Note: I wanted to taste the full natural burst of flavors from scallops, asparagus, and ginkgo, so I kept the "seasoning" part simple by only adding slices of ginger to zest up the whole dish)
some chicken broth or water
How to make Stir fry scallops and asparagus with ginkgo
Heat some oil in the frying pan
Add the ginger and fry till aromatic
Add in scallops, and fry till scallop changes color (meaning it's cooked). Dish out and set aside
Add in asparagus, mushroom, and gingko nuts and fry for about 1-2mins. Add in broth or water
When simmering, add back the scallops and stir fry quicky for another 1min to mix well
Serve
