Preparation steps

1.

Peel the asparagus, chop off the woody ends and place with a halved lemon, sugar and 1 tablespoon of salt in boiling water. Cover and simmer over low heat for 15-20 minutes until al dente. Remove from the liquid and let cool to lukewarm.

2.

Cook the eggs about 8 minutes wishy-washy. Strain, rinse, peel and cut in half lengthwise.

4.

Arrange the asparagus on a plate, put the watercress with the spinach and egg halves on top and drizzle with the vinaigrette. Serve garnished with herbs.
