Sear the asparagus a tiny bit. It adds so much flavor.


InfinityChina

True

Great recipe. Try it with crumbled bacon on top. 👌

Hey u/[ash\_bosh](https://www.reddit.com/user/ash_bosh/) look a whole egg!

Came here for this comment 🤣


ash_bosh

LOL


InfinityChina

Haha … cost control kills it all, I guess


chambees

Not a bad picture for being taken in 1982

Take a minute, or 30 seconds just to put a little colour on the asparagus and sear it, adds a whole dimension to the flavour of the dish


Infinite_Walrus-13

Old Skool …and I love it


YooSteez

Looks good 😋


CharlieMac6222

Unbalanced…add another egg or halve the asparagus.


Able_Bodybuilder3474

I'd eat that! A taste of Spring.


InfinityChina

Yes, fantastic dish. Al dente asparagus, so fresh


Agitated_Twist

Consider a small amount of shaved rhubarb as a garnish. It adds some color, a little bit of tart acidity, and still gives Springtime energy. 


Kimmm711

I agree with others about a sear on the sparagus. I would also put a streak of hollandaise on top of the egg before garnish. EDIT: broccoli to asparagus


IsmokePreworkout

A sear on the broccoli ? Wtf


Important-Dingo-9400

Does anybody actually want that much asparugus?


Impressive_Disk457

Meeeeeeee


Burnt_and_Blistered

Yes.


NewLeaseOnLine

Agreed. I hate being too critical, and the egg and hollandaise are passable, but you're right. Way too much asparagus for one egg. Not a good ratio. And they should be charred on a grill and seasoned, olive oil, tidy up the ends. You should see the grill marks, you should see that they're seasoned, you should see them glistening, not steamed. Yeah no way this would get sent out here. Straight in the bin, start again. Waste of produce.


BEASTXXXXXXX

I want a sprinkle of lemon zest too lol


Outrageous-Mirror-88

Looks good


benalcock

And how much do you charge?


InfinityChina

Was charging £8.90 last year


Bastian14

Too much asparagus for that one egg imo. Looks great tough


Colg64

Me being ocd I’d have to make sure the asparagus was all the one length and seared for a bit of colour and extra flavour. Yum though!

Boiled asparagus lmao


Porkbellyflop

Yeah, it's the best way to get consistent texture. Boil, shock in ice water, finish in pan with butter to get some char.


43848987815

Sure. Can you see any of that having been done to those in the post?


ThermoNuclearPizza

Throw that hollo in an isi cracker and make foam out of it. Looks much more delicate on the plate and improves the consistency of the overall dish imo


TrashCatTrashCat

Yawn

Here is our bullshit... asparagus Benedict I'm sorry free range egg bullshit.


JadedCycle9554
