• 1 bunch asparagus green
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt
• 10 basil leaves
• 3 tablespoons creme fraiche
• 1 lemon
• 1 3/4 ounces smoked salmon heart, diced

1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius
2. Wash the green asparagus, cut the edges and remove 10 cm from the bottom of each stem.
3. Place the asparagus tips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and sprinkle a tablespoon of olive oil and some coarse salt on top.
4. Cook for 10 minutes.
5. Mince the stems with a knife.
6. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet and saute the asparagus over high heat, stirring regularly. Add salt and then remove from heat.
7. Add the basil, creme fraiche, and zest of half a lemon.
8. Separate this mixture into two jars, ramekins, or casseroles. Stick 3 cooked asparagus tips in each of them so that they stick out of the top.
