Techniques
  • 500 g asparagus
Chop the woody stems off the asparagus and lay the spears on a quarter sheet pan.
Broiled asparagus with garlic butter
  • 1–2 tbsp oil
  • salt
  • black pepper
Drizzle with a tablespoon or two of oil, season with salt and a lot of black pepper, and roll them with your palm for even coverage.
Broil under a high broiler for three to four minutes, turning the tray halfway so they blister evenly; four to five minutes total.
  • 30 g butter
  • 4–5 cloves garlic cloves
Melt the butter in a small saute pan with the minced garlic over low heat and cook about two minutes, right until the garlic is about to take colour.
Drizzle the garlic butter over the cooked asparagus, add a touch more salt, and toss gently with tongs to coat.
  • lemon juice
Finish with a little lemon juice and toss again.
