Asparagus with Indian spices

Serves 2 as Appetizer.

This is an entry for Monica's competition.

I have not tested it myself, asparagus not yet being in season here.

  • 1 lb Fresh Asparagus
  • 2 T Olive or groundnut oil
  • 2 T FIncely shreded coconut
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Light curry powder of your favourite spice mixture

1. Prepare the asparagus: break off the tough part of the base of the sticks, and if fancy peel from below the bud area

2. Toss with the oil

3. Roast in a hot oven for 10 minutes

4. In a hot pan put the salt and the ground spices, heat until the aroma is released.

5. Mix in the grated coconut

6. Plate the asparagus and either strew the coconut mix over, or leave on the side of the plate, or put a soft poached egg on the plate, and top with the spice mixture
