Baked asparagus

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Peel the asparagus and cut off any woody ends. Make sure that all asparagus spears are roughly the same thickness.
  2. Brush a piece of aluminum foil with soft butter, add a little salt and a pinch of raw sugar. Now place the asparagus spears side by side on top. Now brush the asparagus stalks with the soft butter again, add a little salt and sprinkle a pinch of sugar over them. Place the lemon slices and the thyme sprigs on the asparagus stalks and then fold the aluminum foil into an airtight package.
  3. Put the aluminum packet in the oven for approx. 25 – 35 minutes – depending on the thickness of the asparagus.

Pumpkin Seed Butter

  1. Roughly chop the pumpkin seeds. Melt the butter in a pan and roast the breadcrumbs until golden brown and add the chopped pumpkin seeds in the last 2 minutes and let them roast and then salt the butter.

  1. Take the asparagus out of the packet and arrange on a plate and pour the pumpkin seed butter over it. We had boiled ham with it.
