01Wash asparagus, snap off the ends and cut into 1-inch pieces on a very sharp slant.
02Heat the oil in a wok or skillet. Add the asparagus and stir-fry for about three minutes. Stir in the jicama.
03Add salt, sugar and chicken broth, stir and cover. Lower heat and cook about three minutes, until the asparagus are crisp-tender but have not lost their bright green color.
04Add sesame oil and scallions, stir once and serve. If desired, transfer to a serving dish and allow to cool to room temperature, then serve as a salad.
