How To Make Asparagus Curry

When buying asparagus, thin is better than thick. Choose firm spears. Avoid asparagus that have a wrinkled skin, or tips that are wet and greasy looking.

  • Rinse and drain the asparagus spears, then chop into 1 inch pieces. When slicing, leave the tops of the spears intact so they don’t fall apart while cooking.
  • Heat oil on medium heat in a skillet.
  • When oil is hot, add cumin and fennel seeds and stir for 20-30 seconds–not long at all.
  • Add garlic, ginger, and onion and stir skillet.
  • Let simmer about 2 minutes, lower heat if necessary.
  • Stir in curry powder and cook for another minute.
  • Add sliced cherry tomatoes and salt to taste.
  • Continue simmering about 2 minutes, and then add 1 cup of water.
  • Raise the temperature and bring the skillet to a bubble.
  • Add asparagus and reduce the temperature back to medium heat.
  • Simmer uncovered for another 3-4 minutes, or until the asparagus is done to your liking–it won’t take long!
