Instructions: Snap off tough asparagus ends and, if large, peel stalks. Arrange in a single layer in baking dish. Drizzle with oil; roast in oven, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.

In a bowl combine soya sauce and balsamic vinegar; drizzle over asparagus.

Roast 5 minutes more or until tender-crisp. Remove from oven; sprinkle with sesame seeds and sesame oil, if using.

Yield: 4 servings
