Roasted Asparagus

Wednesday, May 11, 2011

Asparagus is one of those vegetables many of us don't even bother to experiment with. It has a very subtle taste and my mom just happened to love them, when she came here. So I decided to try this recipe when I saw this on the Food Network.

Difficulty level: Easy
Preparation time: 5min
Cooking time: 10-12 min

Ingredients

Asparagus: 1 bunch
Olive oil: 1 tbsp
Pepper: 1/2 tsp
Salt: to taste

Clean and trim the hard part. This is easy. Take one stalk of asparagus and try to break it. Wherever the stalk  breaks is the mark. Cut the rest of the stalks, using this as the indicator.
Drizzle olive oil after transferring to a baking tray. Sprinkle the salt and pepper, to taste. "Toast" it in the oven for 10-12 min (or until the tip of the stalks are roasted ).The stalks will be nice and soft.
Serve warm.
