Ingredients

130 g green asparagus
75 g sprouts (I’ve used onion and radish seed sprouts)
12 quail eggs
60 g Castello® Tickler mature cheddar
pepper

Preparation

Preparation

Blanch the asparagus briefly in boiling water for approx. 2 min., then set aside to cool.

Boil the eggs for 3 min.

Cut the asparagus and cheddar into thin strips (it’s easiest to use a peeler).

Layer the dish on small plates. Place asparagus on the bottom, then top with the shoots shaped like a little nest. Then top with Castello Tickler Mature Cheddar and a couple of eggs. Finish with a sprinkle of freshly ground pepper.
