Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Sea salt
1/2 pound asparagus, woody ends trimmed
3 large handfuls young arugula
Juice of 1 blood orange
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grapeseed oil
1/2 cup goat curd (or fresh goat cheese), chilled

Steps:

  • Bring a large pan of water to a boil. Add enough salt to make the water salty. Add the asparagus and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and run under cold water. Lay the asparagus out to cool completely and dry. Slice into 1-to-1 1/2-inch lengths. Combine the asparagus and arugula in a bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the blood-orange juice, vinegar and mustard and a little salt and pepper. Add the oil in gradual amounts, first in drops, then in a thin stream, until the vinaigrette is thick and emulsified. Season to taste.
  • Pour the dressing over the arugula and asparagus. Toss to coat. Add the goat curd, broken into lumps. Toss gently to mix. Taste and adjust seasoning.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover asparagus. I had some roasted asparagus in the fridge, and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

The asparagus was cooked perfectly - tender but still slightly crunchy. And the goat curd dressing was amazing! I could eat it on everything.
