List of Ingredients




For biscuits:
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup soft butter
3/4 cup cream or milk
1 beaten egg

For asparagus:
2 pounds asparagus, cut into short pieces
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup finely grated white cheddar cheese

Recipe



For biscuits: Combine flour, baking powder, salt, butter and milk; mix until batter is smooth. Knead on floured board and cut with a large round cookie cutter to form biscuits. Place on greased cookie sheet.

Brush tops with beaten egg. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

For asparagus: While biscuits are baking, in a saucepan bring just enough water to cover asparagus to a boil. Cook until asparagus is fork-tender. Drain off any water.

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet; add onion and saute until tender.

Dissolve cornstarch in milk; add salt and onion and cook until thickens. Fold in asparagus and cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Serve over split warm biscuits.
