Ina Garten, famed for her comfort food, offers an effective tip for elevating roasted asparagus: adding parmesan. This technique prevents overcooking and delivers a delicious depth of flavor, making asparagus more enticing. The method is straightforward: coat asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, roast in the oven, and finish with parmesan. This dish can also be paired with lemon or transformed into a tart, showcasing the versatility of simple ingredients in creating gourmet meals effortlessly.
"To make a knockout parm-roasted asparagus, says Garten, simply drizzle olive oil, salt, and pepper over a baking sheet lined with asparagus. After 15 to 20 minutes in a 400-degree Fahrenheit oven, pull the asparagus out and sprinkle it with a generous pinch of parmesan, baking for one more minute to melt the cheese."
"Adding parmesan to roasted asparagus not only enhances its natural savory depth, but also makes this often overlooked vegetable more appealing to picky eaters."
"Feel free to add as much cheese as you please. According to Garten, ½ cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese is the right amount per 2½ pounds of fresh asparagus."
"For serving, plate your roasted parmesan asparagus with a few lemon wedges and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to complete the dish."
