Ingredients
 

  • 10 spears asparagus
  • 1 tbsp almonds sliced almonds or whole almonds lightly crushed
  • 1 tbsp feta
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • black pepper
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Heat a heavy-based pan and put in your olive oil. Cut the ends off the asparagus where the plant is tough. Toss the stems into the pan along with the almonds and the thyme.
  • Make sure to shuffle things around so that everything gets some oil and the asparagus cooks evenly. I like mine to be charred a bit so it takes about 5 minutes for me to get them how I like.
  • Transfer the asparagus and almonds to a plate and crumble on the feta cheese. Add some pepper to taste (you shouldn't need much in the way of salt because the feta is salty anyway), add a good squeeze of lemon juice and another drizzle of olive oil.

Notes

This makes the perfect light lunch for 1 person or an appetiser for 2.
