Blanch the asparagus for 5-7 minutes in boiling salted water.
Prepare the hollandaise sauce: squeeze the lemon, dice the butter and beat the egg yolks with two tablespoons of water.
Place the egg yolks with two tablespoons of water on a double boiler and whisk until you have a light, fluffy cream.
Add 1 dice of butter at a time and whisk well to emulsify.
Season with salt and pepper and add lemon juice before serving in a sauceboat or directly on the asparagus.
It's ready!
The MagicTip: to know where to cut the bottom of the asparagus, just fold it until it breaks, the fibrous and hard part of the asparagus will remain in your hand.
Perfect to complete an impromptu aperitif, these homemade twists will delight your guests.
Ingredients for 4 people:
1 x puff pastry
1 x grated parmesan cheese (100gr)
1 x egg
Roll out the puff pastry. Cover the dough with an egg yolk slightly diluted with water. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan, salt and pepper.
Fold your dough in half, then cut into strips about 1 cm wide. Twist each strip and place them on a baking sheet. Brush with the remaining egg yolk and sprinkle again with Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 10 min at 200°. Your twists should be golden brown.
To vary the twists, replace the parmesan cheese with gruyère cheese, or pesto.
