It’s asparagus season and I can’t get enough of it. Frying asparagus brings the best. The tips become a little crunchy in the oven, which I love, and the taste is more concentrated than it would be if you steamed or stewed it.
Baked asparagus is the perfect spring side dish, either for brunch or dinner. As a bonus, it’s easy to toss together while your main course is cooking on the stove.
You can keep fried asparagus as simple as you want. Below is a basic recipe, plus ideas for changing spices!

The ends of the asparagus can be uncomfortably tough and woody. To remove these parts, bend the asparagus sharply near the base.
The asparagus will crack in the right place. I think this would be a fun evening project for the kids.
How to bake asparagus
Baking asparagus is super easy and fast! Simply pour the prepared asparagus with a light drop of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. I like to do this on a large baking sheet in frames (associated link) lined with parchment paper for easier cleaning.
Bake until the asparagus is easily pierced with a fork, which will vary depending on the thickness of the asparagus. Pencil-thin asparagus, like the one shown here, will be done in just 10 minutes. Thick asparagus will take between 15 and 20 minutes. You will find all these details in the recipe below.
