Found this recipe in a magazine, lovely way to serve the new seasons asparagus. Ingredients:
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed |
1 lb spinach pasta (i use tagliatelle) |
4 ounces butter |
salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill |
freshly grated parmesan cheese, to, serve |
Directions:
1. I have used 1 Tbsp hot olive oil in place of butter and mixed some fromage frais into pasta for a change.
2. Boil or steam asparagus in lightly salted water until just tender (approx 8-10 minutes) Cook pasta in another large pan of boiling salted water.
3. Meanwhile, heat butter in a medium pan.
4. Drain asparagus and cut spears in to short lengths, then add them to the butter.
5. Add a little seasoning, then pour the asparagus mixture over the drained pasta.
6. Sprinkle with dill and mix well.
7. Serve at once with the grated Parmesan.
