Serves 2
1 lb./500 g fresh green asparagus
1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp salt
2-3 tbs sesame seeds
Pre-heat oven to 425ºF/220ºC
1. Wash asparagus and trim off tough ends.
2. Put oil in a baking dish and add the asparagus, rolling the stalks around to coat them with oil. Sprinkle salt over the stalks.
3. Place in pre-heated oven and bake for 15 minutes or until tender to touch with a fork.
4. Meanwhile, place sesame seeds in a shallow pan and toast over medium high heat until they begin to pop and turn color. Remove from heat and pour into a dish to stop the toasting process. Set aside.
5. When the asparagus is ready, remove from oven, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
