for one hour or more in the refrigerator.

Heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil over high heat, add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Stir in asparagus. Add 1/4 cup water. Cover pan for 2 minutes, and
do not lift lid. When done, remove to a platter.

Over high heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil. Stir-fry the RINSED black
beans and garlic mixture. Stir for a few seconds. Add the beef.
Stir-fry quickly until barely. Do not overcook or the beef will
become tough. Sizzle in 1 tablespoon of rice wine and 2 teaspoons of
soy sauce. Stir in asparagus.

Add gravy mixture. Stir until thickened. Serve hot.
