Similar Categories:  Angels, Hair, Pasta, Asparagus

Yield: 2 Servings

3 qt Water
12 Stalks asparagus
2 tb Butter
2 c Heavy cream
6 Coils angel hair pasta
1/2 c Grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh ground black pepper

Fill a large saucepan with water and put over high heat to boil for pasta.

Cut 3-inch pieces from tips of asparagus (the rest can be kept to make
soup); then with a chef's knife, slice 3- inch tips into thin bias slices.
Heat butter in a sauté pan or skillet, add slices of asparagus, and stir
into butter; cook for 3 minutes.

Pour cream into a saucepan and boil rapidly 3 minutes; cream must boil to
reduce and thicken.

Add pasta coils to rapidly boiling water, 1 coil at a time, and cook about
3-4 minutes. Drain pasta into a colander, pour into a warm bowl, and mix
with hot asparagus and thickened cream. Add grated cheese and toss
carefully; season to taste with pepper.
