Since asparagus has a delicate taste, the best cooking option is steaming; not only it helps preserve the nutrients, but also helps keep the texture and the flavor as well. Its delicacy makes it perfect side dish for eggs, poultry and meat.

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound of asparagus

Salt and freshly ground pepper

Extra virgin olive oil

STEPS:

Bring about 3 inches of slated water to a boil, add the asparagus on steamer and steam for about 10 minutes.
