Ingredients

Romesco Sauce
  • 1 oz hazelnuts
  • 2 large red tomatoes
  • 2 large red peppers
  • 3 teaspoon sambal oelek(chili paste)
  • 6 cloves  garlic
  • 1 dash  salt
  • 1 slice day old bread
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
Asparagus Spears
  • 12 large asparagus
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2  tablespoon butter
 

Instructions

Romesco Sauce - In dry skillet roast the hazelnuts until you can smell them.
Wash two red bell peppers, place on cookie sheet, and bake at 450 for 30 to 35 minutes. They are done when the skins of the peppers are blistered. Remove from oven and place peppers in paper bags. After 10 minutes in bag peel off the skins. Cut off the stems of the peppers.
Place hazelnuts in food processor. Pulse until they are smooth. Add rest of ingredients and pulse until mixture is smooth.
 
Heat up a skillet. Add butter and olive oil. When oil is hot add asparagus spears. Cook for one minute. I like mine crunchy.
In another skillet heat up romesco sauce. On serving plate add your asparagus and spoon sauce over the asparagus.
