Grilled Asparagus With Creamed Bacon
- 1 pound grilled asparagus, lightly seasoned
- 0.5 cups onion, diced (about one small onion)
- 2 ounces bacon, small diced or in lardon
- 2 teaspoons ginger, minced
- 0.5 cups slightly sweet white wine, such as German riesling
- 2 tablespoons cream
- fish sauce, to taste
- In a small sauce pan, cook the bacon over medium-low heat until mostly rendered.
- Add the onion, and cook, stirring, until it is fully cooked and very soft, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the ginger and continue cooking for another minute or so.
- Turn the heat up to medium-high and add the wine. Reduce until there is almost no liquid left. You really want to concentrate flavors here.
- Lower the heat a bit and stir in the cream. Simmer for a few minutes until you have a nice, thick chunky sauce.
- Season to taste with fish sauce. You want it to be aggressively seasoned.
- Arrange the asparagus on a serving plate and spoon the sauce over top. Serve immediately.
