Method

  • 1.
    Slice mushrooms roughly, leaving smaller mushrooms whole. Combine ginger, garlic, soy and stock in a pan over high heat. Bring to the boil, then add mushroom. Cover, and reduce heat to medium. Cook for 4 minutes, then add asparagus. Cover, then remove from heat and set aside for 4 minutes or until asparagus is tender. Drain, reserving liquid.
  • 2.
    Fill a wok or large saucepan one-third full with oil and heat to 180°C (a cube of bread will turn golden in 45 seconds when hot enough).
  • 3.
    Crack 2 eggs into bowls. Slide 1 egg into the hot oil and cook for 1 minute or until crispy and the yolk is barely cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Repeat.
  • 4.
    Divide vegetables among plates and drizzle with braising liquid. Top with egg and shallots, and serve with chilli in soy.
