Preparation steps
1.
Cook the asparagus in plenty of boiling, salted water for about 6-7 minutes. Drain, leave to cool slightly and cut into pieces at an angle.

Cook the peas in boiling, salted water for about 3 minutes. Drain and leave to cool. Wash the arugula and spin dry.
3.
Peel the garlic and press into 8 tbsp olive oil. Add the herbs, salt and plenty of pepper and puree finely with an electric hand blender. Leave to stand for 5 minutes.
