Ingredients:
For the Asparagus:
- 3 bunches of asparagus, ends snapped off
- A drizzle of Olive Oil
For the Dressing:
- 2 tsp Bush Airborne Honey, melted
- Juice of a lemon
- 1 clove of Garlic (Minced)
- ¼ cup Olive Oil
- ¼ cup Hemp Seeds
- A pinch of salt & pepper
For the Crumb:
- ½ cup macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 2 slices stale bread, blitzed into rough crumbs
- A handful Parsley, roughly chopped
- A handful Oregano, roughly chopped
- A handful of Grated Parmesan
- Zest of a lemon
- A pinch of salt & pepper
Method:
- In a fry pan over a high heat, toast the bread crumbs, hemp seeds, garlic, lemon zest & macadamia nuts in a generous drizzle of macadamia oil until golden and crunchy. Season with salt & pepper. Let cool.
- In a bowl combine the golden crunchy crumbs, parmesan, and herbs.
- In a separate bowl combine lemon juice, macadamia nut oil, honey, salt & pepper
- Heat the BBQ to high.
- Brush the Asparagus with oil, sprinkle salt and pepper and BBQ until charred all over, making sure they still have a bite (nothing worse than overcooking your asparagus!). Take off the heat and spread out on a beautiful platter.
