This is one of my favourite ways of eating not only asparagus but also other green vegetables such as broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
- 300 g bunch of fresh asparagus spears (peel of any hard ends if necessary)
- half a portion (or even less) of cheese sauce (skip the chive)
METHOD
- Bring wide pot of water to boil.
- Cook asparagus for 5 – 7 minutes and quickly transfer to the strainer, not to over cook it.
- Serve on the plate topped with cheese sauce.
Serves 4 people as a side dish.
