description
a very spring recipe with the king of spring: asparagus.
preparation
step 1
Soak the peeled spelled, even if you find written on the package that you do not need: doing so you eliminate the phytates that prevent the absorption of some nutrients.Leave it 45-60 minutes (if you do two hours better) and in the meantime prepare the others ingredients
step 2
Asparagus: after having washed and brushed them thoroughly, preserve the tips and reduce the rest of the stem to the washers. When the knife will sink with difficulty in the asparagus, it will be time to stop and discard the residue.
step 3
Discarding does not mean throwing! If you peel the leftovers you can use them for other recipes.
step 4
Carrots: wash and peel them, then cut them into washers that are not too thin. Let's say they must have the same thickness as asparagus washers. In the thickest part of the carrot cut the washers in half.
step 5
Cooking: in a large pan pour a veil of water, putting a teaspoon of vegetable stock in powder. When the water, I recommend very little, comes to the boil pour the carrots and cook with lid for 5-7 minutes.
step 6
Then add the asparagus, just the washers, and a sprinkling of oregano and cook for another 10 minutes. Add a little water to the need, but I do not think it will help because the asparagus are rich.
step 7
It is time to cook spelled. Drain it, rinse it and put it in the pan with cold water. We want it crunchy and well melted, so we will put more water than absorption cooking. About two and a half times of water compared to the volume of the cereal
step 8
Put the pot on the stove and, when the water is boiling, add salt and lower the heat. Cook for 20-25 minutes, taste and decide when it seems cooked. Drain.
step 9
While cooking the cereal, prepare the decoration. Divide the asparagus tips in half lengthwise, put a veil of oil on the bottom of a pan (just a brush) and when the pan is at temperature pour the tips to toast them on both sides
step 10
Spring spelled salad: mix the cereal and the sliced vegetables, season with extra-virgin olive oil, mix well and portion. On each serving place the asparagus tips toasted and sprinkled with peeled hemp seeds. Enjoy your meal!
