Asparagus Beef Rolls

Why people make this dish

Sometimes the best food therapy is simply a delicious meal that is also genuinely good for you. These beef rolls are straightforward to make, attractive on the plate, and built around ingredients that have real nutritional and traditional merit. Asparagus has been valued in Chinese cooking for its warming, fatigue-relieving qualities; enoki mushrooms (jin zhen gu) are sometimes called “wisdom mushrooms” in Chinese food culture, associated with memory support and healthy cholesterol levels. Wrapped in strips of good beef and finished with a savoury oyster sauce glaze, this is everyday food therapy at its most enjoyable.
