In a small bowl, mix the sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Whisk until there are no lumps. Also, prepare the vegetables and aromatics. Roughly chop the asparagus into bite-sized pieces, cut the bell pepper into thin strips, and thinly slice the carrot. Mince the garlic and grate or mince the ginger. If using cilantro for garnish, chop it now as well. If they are not ready, peel and devein the shrimp and pat it dry with a paper towel. Next, add the shrimp and stir to coat it with the oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they just turn opaque. If you try this shrimp stir fry recipe, let me know how it goes in the comments below.
