Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 1 kg asparagus
  • Salt
  • Sugar
  • butter

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Peel the asparagus, divide it into two portions, and place them on two sheets of aluminum foil. Season with salt and a pinch of sugar, and cover with 1 tablespoon of butter. Fold the aluminum foil so the asparagus lies flat next to each other. The asparagus heads should be covered with a double layer of foil; this will help them stay crisper. Steam in the oven for 25 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. Note from the Chefkoch.de recipe editor: If you don’t want to use aluminum foil, use parchment paper or baking paper for the package. For some time now, aluminum foil has also been available that has been lined with baking paper on the side facing the food; this is also recommended.
