Lemon Buttered Grilled Asparagus

Ingredients

  • 500g asparagus
  • 1 knob butter
  • crumbly cheese (to serve)
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 splash lemon juice
  • 1 splash lemon juice
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 2 handfuls salad leaves
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

Put your griddle pan on a high heat. Place 500g of washed asparagus (woody ends snapped off) on the dry griddle pan.

Turn and lightly char on both sides until just tender (roughly 2 to 3 minutes on each side), then toss in a large bowl with a knob of butter, a good squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Divide between plates or serve on a big platter. Toss 2 large handfuls of salad leaves with a little extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper and a good squeeze of lemon juice.

Sprinkle a nice crumbly cheese over, and serve.
