Ingredients

8 oz. dried Asian noodles, such as soba, udon or Chinese wheat noodles

1 1/2 Tbs. cornstarch

2 tsp. vegetable oil

1 tsp. dark sesame oil

1 medium onion, chopped

2 medium cloves garlic, minced

1 1/2 lbs. slender asparagus, trimmed and cut on slight diagonal into 1-inch pieces (4 cups)

14.5-oz. can diced tomatoes

1/4 cup dry white wine

3 Tbs. rice vinegar

3 Tbs. soy sauce

2 Tbs. honey

1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper

Directions

Bring large pot of water to a boil. Add noodles; stir to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside until ready to use.

Meanwhile, in a cup, mix together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until smooth. Set aside.

In nonstick wok or large nonstick skillet, heat both oils over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add asparagus, increase heat to medium-high and stir-fry until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Add tomatoes, wine, vinegar, soy sauce and honey; mix well. Stir in reserved cornstarch mixture, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring, until mixture has thickened, 2 minutes.

Stir in cooked noodles until well coated. Season with pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings to create a pleasing sweet and sour balance. Serve
