Ingredients

  • 400 g slim asparagus, trimmed
  • Olive oil
  • Sea salt and milled black pepper
  • 250 g cooked fresh angel-hair pasta, well drained
  • 4 cups good-quality vegetable broth
  • 1 free-range egg

Top with asparagus. Whisk the egg with the lemon juice, then into the hot broth.
Ladle over the pasta and asparagus.
Serve with Parmesan.
