Asparagus is the newfound favorite vegetable in our family. I have made the roasted asparagus a couple of times in the last few days and I again brought a bunch of it this week to make this delicious Asparagus Curry also known as Asparagus Poriyal.

Step 3

– Add the chopped asparagus, salt and sugar and mix it well. Cover the pan and let the vegetable cook in medium flame until soft. Do not add any water. The vegetable will let out moisture and cook in its own moisture. This will take about 6-8 minutes.
