Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 * Exported from MasterCook * Asparagus: Roasting Tips Recipe By : Experience Life Magazine, May/June 2002, page 17 Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Side Dishes Vegetables Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 pounds asparagus 8 ounces thinly shaved cremini mushrooms 2 tablespoons fresh thyme 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 6 tablespoons olive oil salt and pepper 1 tablespoon truffle oil Reggianno Parmesan -- for garnish Even your kids can handle this simple preparation! Brush asparagus with just enough olive oil to coat sparingly. Sprinkle with sea salt. Roast on a cookie sheet for 7-8 minutes in a 500-degree oven. While the asparagus is roasting, combine cremini mushrooms with 2 tbl. of fresh thyme, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper. Try adding truffle oil for an elegant touch. Arrange the asparagus on a platter, arrange the mushroom mixture on top of the spears and garnish with shaved curls of Reggianno Parmesan. Or, if your kids aren't mushroom fans, serve this mixture on the side. By Andrew Zimmern. Zimmern is a celebrated chef, restaurateur and expert culinary instructor.
