Steps:
- Snap off ends of asparagus. Trim triangular leaves from sides, and peel spears. Place in pot of simmering salted water, and cook 6 to 8 minutes until very tender. Drain well on paper towels. Arrange on platter, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and refrigerate.
- Wipe mushrooms with damp paper towel. Pare off outside of porcini stems, trim ends and slice very thin. If using cremini, trim bottoms of stems; slice very thin.
- Place mache or purslane in bowl. Toss with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss again.
- To serve, arrange asparagus side by side on 4 large salad plates. Place mushroom slices across the center of asparagus. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with hazelnut oil and remaining lemon juice. Place a cluster of mache or purslane on top of mushrooms, arrange shavings of cheese over salad and serve.
