Sprinkle with black pepper, this easy bacon and asparagus stir-fry is one of my favorite dishes in the summer. The freshness of the ingredients are key to the success of this dish. And all you need are Asparagus, Bacon and Garlic.
As a foodie, I try to make my food not only tastes good but also looks appealing. When cutting the asparagus ( after snapping the ends off) , I positioned my knife at around a 30-degree angle to the cutting board and then slice the spears cross, this is how the asparagus would have a angled edge.
Below is a summary of how I made this dish with pictures.
