Asparagus is always great in season, but instead of steaming, I found it tastes great baked in this easy style
Ingredients:
1 bunch asparagus (about 20 tips), the younger the better
olive oil (spray can best)
parmesan cheese (fresh is best, but turn a blind eye and use the pregrated stuff if you want)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Trim asparagus to even lengths and arrange on baking paper in a baking dish big enough to take them all lying side by side
2. Grate parmesan over the asparagus tips (enough for your taste, I use loads!)
3. Add salt (not much because of cheese) and pepper (lots, preferably)
4. Place in hot oven (200celsius) for 7-8 minutes, or until cheese melts and browns a little
5. Serve with whatever - goes very well with fish.
6. Remember to open the toilet window!
