Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 500 g asparagus, green
  • 1 package of Serrano ham
  • Black olives (real, possibly dried)
  • herb butter
  • 100 g feta cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Balsamic cream
  • 4 tsp sugar
  • 1 baguette(s) or ciabatta
  • Sea salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

Simple and very tasty!

Generously trim off the woody bottom part of the asparagus and fry it in a pan with butter over medium heat until lightly browned. Then spread the sugar evenly over the asparagus and let it caramelize. When the asparagus is almost done, briefly fry a few baguette slices in the frying fat and then spread them with herb butter. Thread black olives, each with a small piece of Serrano ham, onto a toothpick and place in the still-warm pan. Crumble the feta cheese over everything and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Season with pepper and sea salt.
