The asparagus was a bit too tough for my liking. I would probably cook it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would probably use less chili sauce next time.

The asparagus and water chestnuts were a great combination, but the sauce was a bit too thick for my liking. I would probably thin it out with some water or broth next time.
