Nutritional values
Peas and asparagus provide the appetising freshness and fibre that is pleasantly satiating. Together with the rice they also provide vitamin B1 - also known as thiamin. It is not for nothing that it is also called the "nerve vitamin", because it enhances our memory performance. If the vitamin is missing, the energy supply for the nerve cells runs out.
In the case of green asparagus, only the lower third needs to be peeled. This saves time and preserves the vitamins, which are located directly under the skin. To avoid cutting too much of the asparagus away, you can break it into small pieces instead of cutting it. It can only be broken above the woody, inedible end, which you can then dispose of safely or use to cook a vegetable broth.
