Note
Meat Substitution: Chicken or pork can be used in place of beef. If using chicken or pork, you can leave the meat in the wok while the asparagus and celery cook to save time and dishes.
Vegetable Tip: It is suggested that asparagus be cut diagonally, as this shape requires a fair amount of attention to ensure even cooking and better texture.
Sauce Variation: A cornstarch gravy may be added to the recipe if a thicker sauce is desired. Mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the wok during the last minute of cooking.
