This vegetable is not commonly grown in Malaysia, but you can find it at restaurants that serve Western cuisines.

Looking for a way to cook asparagus with a local twist? Stir fry it with savoury and creamy salted egg yolk that’ll whet your family’s appetite! Firstly, pour in one tablespoon of oil in a wok and wait until it gets hot and starts smoking lightly. Then, toss in the asparagus and chive flowers and stir fry over high heat for 3 minutes or until it is just cooked. Dish the cooked vegetables onto a serving plate and set it aside. Using the same wok, add in another tablespoon of oil and stir fry some garlic and chilli until fragrant. Next, add in the mashed egg yolks and milk to create the tasty salted egg yolk sauce. Stir the ingredients over low heat until the liquid comes to a boil and slightly thickens.
