re: Let's talk asparagus

I like to put them in a small amount of water, cover them with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, a dab of butter, and "boil" them on high until the water cooks out. If you use the right amount of water they should only boil/steam about 4 minutes on high.

You have to stay over them the whole time flipping/shuffling them around, but it's only 4 minutes.
