Green asparagus with tomatoes and spaghetti

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 500 g asparagus, green
• 200g spaghetti
• 10 cocktail tomatoes
• 2 cloves garlic
• 50 g clarified butter
• 1 pinch(s) of salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Clean the asparagus and cut into pieces about 3 cm long. Heat a generous amount of clarified butter in a pan. Cook the asparagus over medium heat. Add the tips a little later. Quarter the tomatoes, press the garlic, and add both to the asparagus and cook. In the meantime, cook the spaghetti al dente according to the instructions. Drain the spaghetti and immediately toss it in the pan with the remaining ingredients. Finally, season with salt and pepper. Tips: Since I always keep garlic pressed with salt and olive oil in the fridge, I didn’t need to add any seasoning. A little grated Parmesan cheese on top would probably taste delicious too, but unfortunately I didn’t have any on hand.
