Steps:
- Hold both ends of a stalk of asparagus and bend it until it snaps. Then use a knife to trim the remainder of the bunch to match. Discard the trimmed stems.
- Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook, uncovered, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes depending on the thickness. Drain in a colander.
- Meanwhile, put the egg yolk, lemon juice and cayenne in a blender. Pulse a couple times to combine.
- Put the butter in a small microwave proof bowl and heat in a microwave until just melted. With the blender running, gradually add the melted butter into the egg to make a smooth frothy sauce. If the sauce is really thick blend in a teaspoon of lukewarm water to loosen it up.
- Transfer the asparagus to a plate. Pour the sauce over the top of the asparagus, sprinkle with more cayenne if desired and serve right away.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; let cool about 5 minutes. Put egg yolks in a blender. With motor running, gradually add butter. Add lemon juice and cayenne; season with salt and pepper. (Sauce should be thick but fluid enough to drizzle from a spoon, and should form a pool, not a mound. If too thick, thin with warm water.) Season to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Sauce is best used immediately, but can be stored in a thermos about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring 1 inch salted water to a boil in a large straight-sided skillet. Add asparagus, in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Cook until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes; drain. Serve warm or room temperature, with sauce.
ASPARAGUS SAUCE
A simple and really quick recipe for asparagus sauce that can be made when you have asparagus or asparagus tips left over from another dish you are cooking. This sauce is great hot or cold and can be easily frozen. I found it on the English website on which I found my Asparagus and Almond soup recipe, with that recipe. ALL the quantities listed in the ingredients are approximations: it all depends on how much asparagus you are dealing with. So there is one absolutely unlisted ingredient: your culinary discretion! I've added the garlic, but this could easily be omitted. I've posted this for the 2005 Zaar World Tour.

Steps:
- Bring the water to a boil in a large stockpot, and add the salt. Place asparagus spears in the water; cook just until tender, about 5 minutes. Gently transfer to a colander to drain, being careful not to damage the tips. Blot dry with paper towels, and arrange on a large serving platter. Serve warm with hollandaise sauce.
Tips:
- For the perfect omelet, use a nonstick skillet and cook over medium heat. This will help prevent the eggs from sticking and burning.
- When adding the asparagus and shrimp to the omelet, be sure to spread them out evenly so that they cook evenly.
- To make the hollandaise sauce, be sure to whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together slowly over a double boiler. This will help prevent the sauce from curdling.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can make the hollandaise sauce in the microwave. Just be sure to whisk the egg yolks and lemon juice together in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until the sauce is thickened.
- Serve the omelet immediately with the hollandaise sauce on top.
Conclusion:
This asparagus omelet with shrimp and hollandaise sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for brunch, lunch, or dinner. The omelet is light and fluffy, while the asparagus and shrimp add flavor and texture. The hollandaise sauce is rich and creamy, and it perfectly complements the other flavors in the dish. This omelet is sure to impress your guests, and it is also a great way to use up leftover asparagus and shrimp.
