       Unul dintre ingredientele alese de mine pentru Provocarea lunii Mai "Dulce Romanie" este Sparanghelul, o leguma minunata de sezon, pe care sa fiu sincera nu o folosesc prea des in retetele mele, de aceea mi s-a parut perfect pentru provocare, astfel urmand sa vedem mai multe modalitati de a-l prepara.
       Pentru ca am vrut sa pastrez pe cat de mult posibil aroma sparanghelului, am incercat o reteta simpla cu un sos minunat care sa acompanieze fragezimea acestei legume (Reteta am vazut-o in revista Chatelaine). E gata in 15 minute si merge foarte bine langa o fripturica :)

Ingrediente:  

   500 g sparanghel
   250 g iaurt simplu
   3 linguri ulei de masline (presat la rece)
   1 catel usturoi
   putin patrunjel verde
   sare, piper
                           



Cum se face:  

Mai intai spalam sparanghelul.

Rupem capetele lemnoase de la baza si le curatam de coaja subtire (daca sunt mai groase)

Asezam sparanghelul intr-o tava, presaram peste el o lingura de ulei, sare, piper, si intoarcem sparanghelul pe toate partile sa se acopere bine.

Dam la cuptorul preincalzit la 200 de grade pentru 10-15 minute, in functie de grosimea legumelor.(nu trebuie sa fie moale)
Intre timp facem sosul: punem intr-un bol iaurtul cu usturoiul zdrobit, uleiul de masline, sarea si piperul.

Adaugam patrunjelul verde tocat, amestecam bine si dam deoparte.

Eu intre timp am pus si o bucata de carne in tigaia grill, sa servim langa sparaghel :)

Servim sparanghelul simplu cu sos de iaurt (pentru cei ce tin dieta)

E super gustos, fraged pe interior si usor crocant pe exterior :)

 Din alt unghi...

Langa friptura...Bon appetit si astept in continuare retetele voastre pentru provocare :)

       Asparagus is one of the 2 ingredients I've chosen for May's "Sweet Romania" Challenge", a wonderful season vegetable, which to be honest I don't use that often in my recipes, that's why I thought it would be perfect for the challenge, that way we can see different dishes with it.
       Because I wanted to preserve the flavour of asparagus original as possible, I've prepared it using a very simple recipe, with a delightful sauce that would only complement the vegetable (I saw the recipe in Chatelaine). It's ready in 15 minutes and goes very well with steak :)

Ingredients:    

   500 g asparagus (a bunch)

   250 g plain yogurt

   3 tablespoons olive oil (cold pressed is great)    

   1 garlic clove

   some fresh green parsley

   salt, pepper

                           

How it's made:    

We first wash the asparagus.

We snap off tough ends and peel the base if it's thick.

We place the asparagus in a roasting pan, we drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, we sprinkle salt and pepper and we toss very well to coat.

We place the pan in the preheated oven at 400 degrees for 10-15 minutes (depends on thickness).

Meanwhile, in a bowl we mix very well the yogurt, crushed garlic, olive oil, chopped parsley, salt and pepper.

We serve the asparagus with yogurt sauce on top.

I fried some steak in the grill pan and served with the asparagus.

Bon appetit!

I'm waiting for your recipes for this challenge!
