Directions:
- Wash asparagus and break ends off
- (a lot of people don't know that if you break the ends off asparagus the parts left over are the tender ones, no guessing )
- Add asparagus to frypan and just add enough water to steam, give a few turns of freshly grated sea salt and cover.
- Cook on medium high heat....basically steam, till tender, crisp. ( about 3 minutes).
- Drain
- Turn off heat
- Put back on still hot burner
- When excess moisture is gone add butter and parmesean
- Toss
- Cover
- Let sit for about 2 minutes
- Salt and pepper to taste,fresh squeezed lemon juice to taste.
- Toss and serve.
- * I don't use margarine anymore since I found out it was one molecule away from being plastic....go figure. Use butter, just less, better for you!
