My dad’s way for a great tasting asparagus dish.
This is a great appetiser or side dish, or even on its own. I've had asparagus this way since I was little.
This dish is so flavoursome.
Use at least one bunch of asparagus for this dish. It's simple and a great accompaniment to meat or vegetables.
Recipe
Makes 2 Serves
Ingredients
At Least 1 Bunch of Asparagus
3 Tablespoons Butter (Margarine for Vegan version)
1/2 Teaspoons Soy
3 Pinches Salt
5 Pinches White Pepper
Directions
Cut the ends off as they can be tough.
With a potato peeler, peel the skins about halfway up. This will make the asparagus nice and soft.
In a large pot, add water and your asparagus. Bring it to a boil.
In a small tray (anything where your asparagus can fit and can get coated by the margarine or butter), add your margarine or butter.
Over low heat, melt your butter. Then, take it off the heat.
Add your soy sauce.
Add your pepper.
Mix it thoroughly.
Once the water boils, turn it down to medium heat and cook until they are floppy but not soft and mushy.
Place your asparagus in your tray and mix it in the butter to coat the asparagus nicely.
Place your asparagus on a plate and pour the margarine or butter over it. Enjoy!
