THE BEST GRILLED ASPARAGUS
We found that the best way to grill asparagus is to lay it right on the grill grates at an angle--no foil packet or grilling basket necessary. We jazzed ours up with tangy, creamy feta and fresh mint. To get a good char, be sure to use medium-sized asparagus -- no pencil-thin stalks here!

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat. Chop the tough, woody ends off the asparagus (about 1 inch) and peel another inch of the stalks.
- Whisk the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Add the asparagus and toss until well coated.
- Put the asparagus on the grill at an angle so the stalks don't fall through the grates. Grill, flipping halfway through cooking, until the asparagus begin to char, the pointy ends start to crisp and the stalks are just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with the feta and mint.

Steps:
- Heat gas or charcoal grill. Tear off 12-inch length of heavy-duty foil to make packet. Lightly spray 1 side of foil (side that will be inside of packet) with canola oil cooking spray.
- Place potatoes in 2-quart saucepan; cover potatoes with water. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cook until potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes; return to saucepan. Add remaining ingredients; toss gently.
- Place mixture in center of foil. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space on sides for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
- Place foil packet on grill. Cover grill; cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning packet once. Cooking times are approximate and depend on the heat of your grill.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Trim the dry ends off the asparagus. If necessary, peel the fibrous exterior of the bottom half of each spear. Cut the top 3 1/2 inches of each stalk and set aside. Using a sharp knife, very finely julienne two or three of the stalk bottoms (reserve the rest for another use) and place in a small bowl. Add the chives, olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
- On a sheet of heavy-duty or a double layer of aluminum foil, place the asparagus tips standing up and crimp the foil around them at the bottom so that they remain standing. Add the butter on top of the spears, and continue to crimp the foil closely around the spears, sealing it closed at the top. Place in the oven and roast until barely tender, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, make the cashew cream.
- In a food processor, pulse the cashews into a fine powder; be careful not to over-process and turn into a paste. Place 2/3 of the ground cashews into a small saucepan; set aside the remainder for garnish. Add the milk to the pan, with 1/3 cup water. Bring to a boil and immediately turn off heat. Mix well; set aside.
- When the asparagus is ready, open the packet and baste it with the juices from the bottom of the foil. On each of 4 small plates, arrange a spoonful of cashew cream and top with two asparagus tips. Place the asparagus julienne on the side and garnish with crushed cashews.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. Tear off 4 large squares of aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Melt 1/3 of the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Toss asparagus, onion, dill, and seasoning blend with butter. Divide among the foil squares.
- Top vegetables with swai fillets. Place small pats of remaining butter over each fish fillet. Sprinkle liberally with seasoning blend. Place lemon slices on top. Fold up foil into packets, sealing seams tightly but leaving room inside for steam to circulate.
- Place packets directly on the grill and cook until swai flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Open packets carefully and squeeze lemon juice over swai and vegetables.

FOIL BAKED ASPARAGUS
A very simple method of cooking asparagus, where they are wrapped in foil and baked, with nothing but a little butter and salt. So easy and yet so delicious!! My 2 1/2 year old daughter liked it too! I've only tried this once and I followed the recipe exactly as set out, but I'd like to try it again, perhaps putting a few sprigs of herbs in with it. You could also try herb butter instead of ordinary butter. You can omit the salt if you like. If you are making larger quantities you might need to make more than one "parcel". You could even wrap each portion separately and serve them in the foil wrappers - I ate mine straight out of the foil, and I think it made them even nicer as they're still steaming hot and in their cooking juices, and you can keep all that flavour and aroma trapped in the parcel until you're ready to eat it! Would make a really good starter served like this. Although I suppose it depends what kind of guests you've got - if they're used to silver platters they might not be so impressed with silver foil!! But I would be! :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180 C (360 F).
- Prepare asparagus by snapping the lower "woody" part of the stem off (if it snaps cleanly you've got the right place; if it is difficult to break try higher up!), and peel the lower section if they're a bit old or thick.
- Tear off a large enough piece of aluminium foil to wrap around the bunch of asparagus securely, and place asparagus in foil.
- Dot with butter and sprinkle lightly with salt.
- Wrap securely, and then wrap an extra strip of foil around the tip end to protect it.
- Bake in oven for 25-35 mins, depending on the thickness and age of the asparagus (Mine were done in 30 and I'd say they were fairly average sized).
- Try to wait until you're ready to serve before you unwrap them, or better still, serve them still wrapped in the foil.
