I originally got this online somewhere, sorry don't remember where, and I haven't tried it yet. I imagine the best bread to use in this case would be plain white, since it ends up being ground into a paste later on. Might be a good way to use up a few bread ends or rolls in your freezer!

Steps:
- Blanch the asparagus in lightly salted, boiling water, for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan and fry the garlic and bread over medium heat until golden.
- Remove the garlic and bread to a blender and mix with the cumin, paprika, vinegar and a little water to make a paste. Start with 1 or 2 tablespoons of water and then adjust as needed until you get a paste-like consistency.
- Reheat the frying pan, adding a little extra oil if necessary. Add in the blanched asparagus and fry for about 5 minutes, then add the paste and a little more water. Cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender.
- This dish can be served as it is or you can add 2 beaten eggs and a little more water then leave on a low heat until the eggs are set.
