This recipe was a disaster. The asparagus was tough and the fried capers were burnt.

I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some garlic and lemon juice to taste, and it was much better.

The asparagus was a little too charred for my taste, but the fried capers were amazing.

I didn't have any capers, so I used chopped sun-dried tomatoes instead. It was still delicious!

I roasted the asparagus for a few minutes longer than the recipe called for because I like it a little more caramelized. It turned out great!
