This is a really
simple seasonal dish. I had to try the shaven asparagus stripes, as I
keep seeing them in so many current recipes. It wasn't bad at all,
and it was curious not to cook the asparagus for a change. So
basically I just combined here roasted new potatoes with lightly
lemony asparagus. I could see this is a side dish in upcoming
Midsummer celebrations. What do you think?
Here is what
ingredients I used and how I made this dish:
500 g new potatoes
1 tsp olive oil
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp smoked
paprika
250 g green
asparagus
½ lemon's juice
1 tsp olive oil
Brush the new
potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle salt and smoked paprika on the
top. Roast in the oven until done.
Shave thin stripes
from asparagus with a peeling knife and dress them with lemon juice
and olive oil. Let infuse in the fridge while the potatoes roast.
Serve the potatoes
and asparagus together.

Its my husband who loves asparagus in our home, and I know for sure he would never allow me to shave/slice it thin - but I do think it would look interesting in a salad
ReplyDeleteI was also a bit skeptical first towards this fashion, but in the end I liked it. I would also add it to salads.
