For this recipe you’ll need:

For the asparagus: 

1 bunch asparagus, tough ends removed 

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 

Salt and pepper to taste 

 

For the aioli:  

1 egg yolk 

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard 

1 clove garlic, minced 

2 tablespoons lemon juice 

3/4 cup grapeseed oil 

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 

1 teaspoon lemon zest 

1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped  

Salt and pepper to taste 

        1. Preheat the oven to 425°.

        3. Roast until crisp yet tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a platter.

        5. Slowly add the oils in a thin, steady stream while whisking vigorously until the sauce is emulsified and thick.

        6. Stir in the lemon zest and dill, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the roasted asparagus.
