Nutritional values

Beef not only contains a lot of high-quality protein, but also scores with the trace element iron. The aromatic lemongrass soothes intestinal problems and inhibits inflammation. And it gives the dressing a great freshness. Chili stimulates blood circulation, fat burning and metabolism through its pungent capsaicin.

If you can't get watercress, you can use arugula instead. If you don't like cilantro, replace the herb with flat-leaf parsley.

Preparation steps

1.

Wash the asparagus, cut off the woody ends and peel the lower third of the spears. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a frying pan or grill pan. Sauté the asparagus in it over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, turning several times. Then season with salt and pepper and remove from the pan.

3.

Meanwhile, for the dressing, remove the outer leaves from the lemongrass, press the stalks several times with a knife and chop. Halve the chili pepper lengthwise, remove the seeds, wash and chop. Squeeze lime, whisk juice with lemongrass, chili, fish sauce, honey and remaining oil, season with salt and pepper.

4.

Cook peas in boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes. Rinse with cold water and drain. Wash and shake dry watercress and cilantro; pluck cilantro leaves.
