A delicious appetizer to prepare: green asparagus with prosciutto and homemade aioli sauce as a dipper. Fast and healthy.
The children were on a schooltrip today. They were climbing and running all day. When they came home I asked what the nicest thing in the parc had been. Surprisingly it was the food. You could eat everything you want all day. And they thought that was fun
They did climb and jump and were real busy today, so they had quite a lot of fun and were exhausted.
They (surprisingly) didn't had any hunger and my husband was on a business trip, so what to cook? I decided to prepare this delicious appetizer: green asparagus with prosciutto and aioli sauce as a dipper. Delicious and healthy.
Because....
- You want as much flavor in the aioli, start with preparing it and afterward do the asparagus. The flavor will enhance in time. You can even prepare the sauce a day before.
- you want to know if your asparagus are fresh. Rub two asparagus against each other. When you hear a squeezing sound, the asparagus are fresh.
- you don't like the tough part of the asparagus, break it by holding the lower site and bend the upper side (just above the middle).
- you want to add some spice to the aioli, add an extra half teaspoon of mustard to the sauce.
It's a good taste!
