Asparagus with lemon aioli is a delightful and easy-to-make dish that combines the fresh flavors of asparagus with a zesty and creamy lemon aioli. This recipe is perfect for a quick side dish or a light appetizer. The combination of tender asparagus and the bright, tangy aioli makes it a crowd-pleaser at any gathering.
- For a richer flavor, you can roast the asparagus instead of steaming or boiling it. Simply toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast at 400°F (200°C) for about 12-15 minutes until tender.
- If you prefer a smoother aioli, consider using an immersion blender to mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and garlic cloves until well blended.
- Add a pinch of black pepper or paprika to the lemon aioli for an extra kick of flavor.
- Garnish the dish with a sprinkle of lemon zest or some freshly chopped parsley for added color and freshness.
- Make sure to trim the woody ends of the asparagus before cooking to ensure they are tender and easy to eat.
