Many of you would know by now that I am a foodie and a photographer by hobby. I frequently love to feature photos of food prepared by myself. I consider this hobby as a learning curve. I am no way a professional photographer. Neither am I a great cook. Two months ago I featured a photo of my recipe titled “stir-fry tilapia with asparagus” on my photo-blog. A commenter by the name of Sadaf requested for the recipe and I thought to share it here with him and every one else. So here it goes!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 lbs fillet of tilapia or any firm fish
- 1/2 lbs asparagus
- 1 shallot
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Method:
- Salt & pepper fish slices to taste.
- Heat skillet to medium-high, add 3 tbsp olive oil.
- Fry fish till golden brown and remove from heat.
- In the same oil, add shallots and fry till tender.
- Add crushed red pepper.
- Add chopped garlic and fry till fragrant.
- Throw in the asparagus, salt and pepper to taste.
- After 1 minute, add the fish and serve immediately with rice. Awesomeness!
After adding asparagus, do not overcook it. A little al dente, retains the color and taste. Bon appetite!
