We are going to elaborate a smooth asparagus cream while still enjoying the most tender part of this vegetable: the tips. In order to take advantage of the time, we are going to cook these tips in varoma while we cook the cream in the glass.

To the cream, in addition to asparagus, we are going to add fresh spinach. Hence that intense green color that can be seen in the photo.

Don't forget to serve it with the tips that we have steamed and, of course, with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

Ingredients

  • 500 g of asparagus
  • 60 g of onion in three or four pieces
  • 40 g of fresh spinach
  • 20 g of extra virgin olive oil (and a little more to put raw later)
  • 450 g of vegetable broth
  • A little salt if we consider it necessary (it will depend on the broth)

Preparation

  1. We wash the asparagus and separate the most tender part (the tips that are seen in the whole photo) from the rest. The other part, the hardest, we chop into cubes, peeling the parts that we consider more fibrous.

  2. We put the tips in the varoma container and reserve them.

  3. We put the onion in the glass. Also spinach and diced stems. Add the 20 g of oil and program 4 minutes, 120 °, speed 1.

  4. At the end of the programmed time, add the broth. We cover the glass and place the varoma in its position. We program 20 minutes, varoma temperature, speed 1.

  5. After those 20 minutes, we remove the varoma container and reserve it.

  6. We put the beaker and crush everything during 30 seconds at speed 9.

  7. We already have the cream ready. We serve it in bowls with the tips of asparagus and we have cooked it on the stick. We pour a drizzle of raw extra virgin olive oil on each bowl.

Notes

If we have leftover asparagus tips, we can use them as a garnish on a second plate.

      They are fresh spinach but, even so, there are not many. This time the protagonists are the asparagus. In any case, you can put more if you want.
      Thanks for writing us, Eva

    Good afternoon Ascen I want to congratulate you on this cream so simple and so rich at the same time
    I put vegetables in the basket so that they would be very tender
    and at the end I added miso that my son brought me from Tokyo and what a difference they sell us here
    and there is a spectacular soup left
    Thank you for posting healthy recipes for the whole family
