Griddled asparagus and goat’s cheese toast

 Tried a new recipe for a toast party with Genva today and this was super delicious!!!  Easy to make too!

Ingredients

Asparagus

sunflower oil

2 large slices sourdough bread

1 large garlic clove, sliced in half

spreadable goat cheese

small handful of pistachios

1/2 lemon, grated

For Herb Oil:

Large handful of soft herbs (basil, mint, oregano, coriander)

juice 1/2 lemon

olive oil

For herb oil, whizz the herbs, lemon juice and a little olive oil in a mini chopper or blender until combined. 

Heat a griddle pan - rub the asparagus with sunflower oil, then cook for 2-3 minutes or until each side is charred and tender.  Put on a plate and cover loosely with foil

Drizzle the bead with a little oil, toast in the griddle pan until crisp on both sides.  Remove to a board.  Rub each slice with cut side of garlic, the spread on the cheese, pile on the asparagus.  Drizzle over the herb oil, then scatter pistachios and lemon zest
