Preparation steps

1.

For the asparagus: Rinse the asparagus, peel and remove woody ends. Assemble 4 asparagus spears each to a bundle using butcher's twine. Bring the water, salt, butter and sugar to the boil in a large pot. Add the asparagus and cook for 18 minutes.

Remove the asparagus with a slotted spoon and drain.

4.

For the tomato sauce: Blanch the tomatoes in a pot of boiling water for a few seconds. Peel, quarter, remove seeds and cut into small cubes. Peel and finely chop the shallots. Stir the tomatoes with the shallots in a bowl. Stir in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.

5.

For the yogurt-cream sauce: Blend the yogurt with the cream in a bowl. Season with the garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6.

To serve, divide the asparagus between plates. Pour the yogurt-cream sauce over the asparagus bundles. Dollop the avocado sauce and tomato sauce on the plate beside the asparagus.
