Ingredients:

Serving

2 bunches asparagus , trimmed of woody ends (thick spears)
125 g butter ( no substitute)
4 garlic cloves, crushed (i actually grate mine on my microplane grater)
salt and pepper
40 g parmesan cheese, grated (finely)

Directions:

Bring a pan of water to the boil, drop the asparagus in and cook for about 2 minutes or until just, just tender crisp. Plunge into iced water to stop them cooking, then drain.
Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat, add the garlic and cook for a minute until fragrant.
Season with salt and pepper, the add the asparagus to the pan, tossing and turning gently in the butter until hot.
Divide amongst 4 plates, then sprinkle each serve with the cheese.
We liked crusty bread to mop up the rest of the garlic butter, but it's up to you!
