Tips

• If you do not have a steamer, follow these easy steps to steam: 1. Fill a saucepan with water to approximately halfway and bring to a boil. 2. Place a colander on the saucepan while the water is boiling (you need to use a colander which fits snugly on the saucepan without touching the water). 3. Put the asparagus into the colander and cover it with a plate, leaving a small opening to let steam out.
