Asparagus with Breadcrumbs & Parmesan Cheese

(5.00/5 - 1 vote)


The Spring is here and that means fresh local vegetables are starting to show up in our grocery store.

One of my favorite vegetables that I can't get enough off after long winter is ASPARAGUS.

I love asparagus. I  put it in my risotto. I grill my asparagus. I steam it.

There is so many ways you can prepare asparagus, but my favorite way to prepare asparagus goes back into my childhood once again.



Growing up in a hotel one of the regular items on the menu was White Asparagus Sauteed with Butter and Breadcrumbs. The asparagus served at the hotel always came out of the can. I never saw fresh asparagus until I came to Canada.

First time I made the asparagus using  fresh local asparagus was a truly a culinary experience for me. It was crunchy and delicious. Nothing like the asparagus out of the can I was used to.

I made the dish exactly the same way they used make it for me growing up, but I added Parmesan cheese and of course the asparagus was fresh.

I made my version of Asparagus with Breadcrumbs and Parmesan Cheese for our Easter Brunch and it was a hit. The plate was empty in seconds.

You can serve this as a vegetable side dish, appetizer or as a light dinner or snack for yourself.

Ingredients:
Bunch of Fresh Asparagus2 Tbsp Butter3 Tbsp Breadcrumbs (fine)1 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese

Wash and dry the asparagus. Snap of the bottoms.

In a large skillet brown the butter. Add the asparagus. Toss it around. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs and  on medium heat saute for about 2-3 minutes while tossing around few times.




Put on a plate and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.









I don't need to put salt in it as the butter and the cheese give it enough saltiness. You can add pepper or salt as per your taste.

Enjoy!
