Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup low-fat milk

  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until softened, taking care not to burn garlic.

Provided by PetsRus

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1/2 small grated lemon, zest of, of
2 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese
garlic salt
12 -16 asparagus spears
sea salt

Steps:

  • Mix together the butter, lemon zest and grated Parmesan and season with garlic salt.
  • Put to one side.
  • Snap the asparagus 2-4 cm/¾-1½in from the base of the stalks, the spears should naturally find their own breaking point.
  • If the asparagus is particularly thick, trim away any tough-looking pointy ears on the stalk, as these can have a bitter taste.
  • Place the asparagus in a wide saucepan or large, deep frying pan of rapidly boiling salted water, cook for 2-5 minutes depending on their thickness until just tender. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and shake off any excess water.
  • Place on a warm plate and sit the flavoured butter on top. Turn the asparagus so the butter is melting and oozing over every spear, then sprinkle over some sea salt.

Tips:

  • Choose asparagus spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are thick or have woody ends.
  • To prepare the asparagus, snap off the woody ends. You can do this by bending the asparagus spear until it snaps naturally.
  • Cook the asparagus in a large pot of boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes, or until it is tender-crisp. Do not overcook the asparagus, or it will become mushy.
  • To make the Parmesan lemon sauce, whisk together the Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. You can adjust the amount of each ingredient to taste.
  • To serve, drizzle the Parmesan lemon sauce over the cooked asparagus. You can also garnish the dish with chopped parsley or chives.

The asparagus is tender-crisp and flavorful, and the Parmesan lemon sauce is rich and tangy. This dish is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin K, vitamin C, and folate.
