Vegetarian Beef With Chilli, Asparagus & Oyster Mushrooms

• 3 garlic cloves, peeled
• 3 tablespoons fresh coriander, chopped
• 2 long red chilies, deseeded and chopped
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 350 g mock beef, finely sliced
• 8 asparagus spears, trimmed and sliced into 5cm pieces on the diagonal (2 inch)
• 8 large fresh oyster mushrooms (or tinned if you can't find fresh, though they are far more slippery)
• 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon vegetarian oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 3 tablespoons vegetable stock

1. Using a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic, coriander roots, chillies and a pinch of salt together.
2. Alternatively, chop the ingredients into a paste using a small food processor.
3. Heat the oil in a hot wok, add the beef and the chilli/garlic paste and stir fry for 1-2 minutes.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients to the wok and cook for a further 2 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender.
5. To serve, pile the beef, asparagus and mushrooms in a bowl and pour the sauce over the top.
