Spicy alternative to hollandaise: Green asparagus with miso dressing
Asaparagus loves to engage in a flavor duel on equal terms.
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
It doesn't always have to be Hollandaise: The malty spiciness of shiro miso combined with the freshness of lime takes the flavor profile of asparagus to a new level.
| Ingredients (2 servings) | ||
|---|---|---|
| 800 | g | green asparagus |
| 5 | tablespoon(s) | olive oil |
| 2 | tablespoon(s) | light miso paste |
| 1 | teaspoon(s) | sesame oil |
| 1 | teaspoon(s) | peeled and grated ginger |
| some fresh lemon zest | ||
| 3 | tablespoon(s) | rice vinegar |
| 4 | tablespoon(s) | juice of one lime |
| 1 | teaspoon(s) | maple syrup |
| coriander leaves for the garnish (optional) | ||
| 1 | teaspoon(s) | toasted sesame seeds (optional) |
- Mix the olive oil, sesame oil, miso paste, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, lime zest and maple syrup in a bowl for the dressing.
- Cut off the ends of the asparagus about 2.5 cm wide, wash the asparagus.
- Whether you grill the asparagus or roast it in the oven is up to you. If you prefer to boil it, it is best to do this lying flat in a pot. To do this, fill a large pot about 5 cm high with water. When the water starts to boil, add the asparagus and cover the pot. When the water boils again, cook for about 4 to 5 minutes. Alternatively, sauté in a pan (approx. 5 minutes) until the asparagus is tender but al dente.
SERVING
- Arrange the asparagus on the plates, drizzle with the dressing – and if desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with coriander leaves.
