List of Ingredients

1/2 pound asparagus
2 tablespoons vegan margarine
1/4 cup sliced almonds, blanched
Salt & pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped


Recipe

Trim the asparagus spears by removing the tough ends and peeling the stalks with a vegetable peeler. In a medium sized sauti pan, big enough to hold the asparagus, blanch them for approximately 1 2 minutes. You want the asparagus to be cooked but still crispy. Drain the spears and keepwarm. In a small saucepan, melt the vegan margarine over medium-high heat. Add the almonds and cook until the margarine starts to brown. Season with salt and pepper, add the lemon juice and parsley.
