1. Chop the bottom tips off the asparagus, and if you want to go buck wild, use a potato peeler to peel the tough skin off the bottom inch or two of the stalks. Heat up the oil in a pan big enough for the asparagus to lie comfortably.
2. Toss in the asparagus. After thirty seconds or so, mix in the garlic. Then add the sesame seeds. Dont cook the asparagus too long.
3. Take it off the heat as soon as it starts to soften. Serve immediately.
