Preparation

Phase 1:

Preparation

Trim and clean the asparagus, separating the stems and peels for the broth, the tips for finishing, and the middle part of the asparagus for the cream.

To make the broth, boil the stems and peels in water for at least one hour.

Bake in a static oven at 200 °C for 20 minutes.

Once cooked, remove the asparagus from the oven and blend them with a drizzle of olive oil and a ladle of broth until smooth and creamy.

In a pan, toast the rice dry, then add the hot broth a little at a time, stirring gently.

Finish the risotto by stirring in butter and grated Parmesan until creamy and well combined.

Phase 2:

Plating

Cut the asparagus in half and arrange them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Season with olive oil, one clove of garlic, salt, pepper, and chives.
