good processing of asparagus pieces

Cook the asparagus pieces with salt, sugar, and a knob of butter until almost tender. Then place the asparagus in a greased baking dish. Dice the cooked ham and arrange on top. Slice the tomatoes and mushrooms and arrange on top of the ham. Pick the basil leaves and cut them into strips. Arrange them on top of the vegetables. Season everything with salt and pepper. Tear the mozzarella over the top and sprinkle everything with grated Parmesan. Bake in the oven at 200°C for approx. 20 minutes. If desired, briefly select the grill function at the end so that the cheese browns. This goes very well with pasta or potatoes.
