2. Heat oil in wok to smoking point. Stir fry asparagus in wok for
about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low medium, cover wok and cook
asparagus for 5 more minutes, lifting cover 3-4 times to stir it. At
the end of 5 minutes, add all the other ingredients except cashews
raise heat 1 notch, stir fry 3 minutes with cover over wok. Lift
cover at least once or twice to stir vegetables, so all will be
