British asparagus with lemon and chive vinaigrette
Serves: 4
Prep: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 2 minutes
Ingredients
- juice and zest of 1 lemon
- 1-2 tsp caster sugar
- 6 tbsp olive oil
- a small bunch of chives, finely chopped
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 bunch British asparagus, trimmed
What to Do
Add the juice and zest of the lemon to a bowl and whisk through the sugar until dissolved. Gradually pour in the olive oil, whisking all the time, until it has emulsified. Stir through the chives and season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
We served this with lightly steamed asparagus. Place the trimmed asparagus into a steamer and steam for 3-5 minutes until tender but still with a little bite.
