Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lb fresh asparagus
6 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon walnut oil, if desired
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Wash asparagus; snap off tough stem ends. In large skillet or Dutch oven, bring 1 inch of lightly salted water to a boil. Arrange asparagus spears evenly in skillet. Cover; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, in small saucepan, mix butter and walnuts. Cook over low heat until butter browns and walnuts are toasted, watching carefully to prevent butter from burning. Stir in oil and salt.

This recipe was a disaster! The asparagus was overcooked and the toasted walnut butter was burnt.
