Servings: 4
  • 500 g white asparagus (thick stems)
  • 7-10 Tbsp salt, pepper, sugar
  • 1 Meat tomato
  • 1 collar Thyme
  • 3 TABLESPOONS good olive oil
  • 200 ml dry white wine
  • 400 g Spaghetti
  • 200 g Parmesan (piece)
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Butter

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash and peel the asparagus and cut off the woody ends. Cut the asparagus into pieces about 5 cm long. Simmer asparagus skins and ends in 1 l boiling salted water with 1 tsp. sugar for about 15 minutes. Drain and collect the stock.

  2. 2

    Wash tomato, carve crosswise and blanch with boiling water. Finely dice the tomato. Wash thyme, shake dry, pluck off leaves.

  3. 3

    Heat the oil in a frying pan. Fry the asparagus and tomato for about 2 minutes. Deglaze with wine. Let it simmer down almost completely at medium heat.

  4. 4

    Add spaghetti and so much asparagus stock (approx. 2⁄3 ) that all spaghetti is covered. From now on, always shake the roaster a little bit, so that everything is moving a little. Bring to the boil and simmer for about 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Always add so much of the remaining stock that all ingredients in the roaster are covered with enough liquid.

  6. 6

    Grate parmesan. Season spaghetti with salt and pepper. Stir in butter and 100 g parmesan. Sprinkle with thyme. Add the rest of the parmesan.
