Of course, this deliciously light spring dish also works really well with green asparagus instead of white. This not only reduces the cooking time of the vegetables to about 8 minutes, but also the folic acid content is higher with green asparagus. The vitamin is important for blood formation and cell renewal, among other things.

Preparation steps

1.

Peel the asparagus and snap off the woody ends. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil with the sugar and lemon juice. Add the asparagus, reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, until fork-tender.

Drain the asparagus and arrange on serving plates. Drizzle the yogurt sauce over top and serve sprinkled with the remaining herbs.
