Baked asparagus with parmesan
This year I sowed green asparagus seeds for the first time ever and prepared seedlings, all because I intend to have my own asparagus in my home garden. However, it will take at least two years before my asparagus is ready for use and reaches the appropriate size. Until then, I am forced to use only purchased specimens. However, I am looking forward to the moment when I will be able to enjoy green asparagus grown by myself. If, like me, you like asparagus, you have certainly made many dishes with it as the main ingredient. This vegetable can be used to prepare soups, tarts and salads. It is delicious when baked, cooked and raw. On my blog, you will find many recipes for asparagus dishes.
Baked asparagus with parmesan is one of the dishes I encourage you to prepare. You will certainly be able to make it in about 30 minutes, of which the time spent working on this dish is less than 10 minutes, because the remaining time is the time devoted to baking this green vegetable. I place the green asparagus on a baking tray and intensively coat it with a slightly spicy marinade of olive oil, chili, garlic, lemon juice and spices. I put the whole thing in the oven for 20 minutes and when it’s ready, I serve it sprinkled with parmesan cheese. Asparagus prepared in such a way is great with crispy toast, served either for breakfast, dinner or lunch. I encourage you to try the recipe for asparagus with parmesan below, I hope you will enjoy.

The chili flakes can be replaced with fresh chili peppers or ground hot peppers. In the case of the latter, use slightly less of it than chili flakes.
