My favorite - Toss in a little sesame oil (a little goes a long way!), sprinkle with sesame seeds and ground ginger and then grill or pan sautee just until softened (not soft and soggy). Yum!0

Cut asparagus into pieces about 1" long. Stir fry with king prawns in a little coconut oil... coriander, lime juice and chilli flakes. Nom nom... :-)0

Use just a little bit of olive oil, salt and pepper, and roast it in the oven for about 20 min, or until it is a little soft but still firm.
We also like browning diced chicken breast in a pan with olive oil and garlic, (meanwhile, cook some cheese ravioli until just about done), cut your asparagus into bit sized pieces, add them to the pan with the chicken with some fire roasted tomatoes, let that simmer for a little bit to combine the flavors. Add the ravioli just before you are ready to serve, they won't take long to finish cooking! You can add oregano and basil if you would like, or thyme and rosemary. It is good, and a one-dish meal!0 -

This is the best! They'll taste just as delicious as they do when you order them when your out to eat.0 -

cut it in 1/4 inch slices on a severe diagonal slant. Steam it in a few tablespoons of water for 3 minutes. Add lemon juice, salt and pepper and a bit of butter or oil. For goldenrod asparagus top with grated boiled egg and a tiny bit of greek yogurt. Yummy.0

My favorite way to use them is simple: take the asparagus and cut them into small pieces (about 1" each). Saute them with some olive oil, crushed red pepper flakes, and garlic. Cook some pasta noodles (I like penne in this dish). Toss the two together. Add a healthy handful of Parmesan cheese. I like eating it as is (hot) and also letting it chill in the fridge and adding some ranch dressing!0

Asparagus with broiled spiced tangarines:
2 asparagus bunches
3 tangarines
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp salt & pepper (divided)
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp EVOO
-Bring large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Blanch asparagus for 1-2 minutes. IMmediately transfer asparagus to bowl of ice water to cool. Remove and pat dry. Refridgerate or use right away.
-Preheat oven to broil. Slice two tangerines in half crosswise. Zest the third and set aside. Mix cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne and half the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle cut sides of tangerines with spice mix and set them spice side up on a foil lined raosting pan. Spoon honey over top each half.
- Toss asparagus with oil and remaining salt and pepper and place in a single layer in the pan along side the fruit. Broil in top third of oven until honey has caramlized and asparagus blistered. (4-5 mins). Transfer asparagus to a platter, slice fruit into wedges and serve alone side. Garnish with the zest.
(I've never tried this, Just so happened I was looking at a magazine and saw this asparagus recipe)0 -
I have to agree -- roasted is my favorite too... I like to take leftovers; chop into smaller pieces and use in an omelet.0

I am definately craving asparagus now. I bought some fresh ones over the weekend, so I think I will cook them tonight. They are super easy to do Jayme. If I can cook them, anyone can. My favorite is sauteed in a little bit of olive oil, or blanched in a small amount of water. Sea salt and pepper are best. My step dad wraps them in bacon with a little bit of soy sauce (like you would to oven roast green beans), and it is fantastic. Omlettes are great too. I guess I better make up my mind which version I want for dinner tonight0

I usually drizzle a little balsamic vinegar on them. Might not be for everyone.0
