DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Trim the asparagus stalks and peel off the tough outer layers at the base with a
vegetable peeler.
|
|
|
|
2:
Poach the asparagus spears in lightly
salted water, until just tender. This will
take between 3-6 minutes. (Use a clean,
deep frying pan if you don't have an
asparagus steamer.)
|
|
|
|
3:
Drain the asparagus well and arrange on two small plates or one large one. Season well.
|
|
|
|
4:
Mix the melted butter with the lemon juice. Trickle over the spears, sprinkle with the eggs and garnish with the chervil. Serve warm.
