Method

1. Soak the pea protein granules in warm water for 5 minutes, then drain through a fine sieve.
2. Wash the asparagus, remove the woody ends, and cut the stalks into small rounds, keeping the tips whole.
3. Finely chop the shallot and soften it in a pan with a little water and a drizzle of oil.
4. Add the asparagus stalks and sauté for 4 minutes; then add the tips and cook for another 2 minutes.
5. Stir in the hydrated pea protein and cook over high heat for 3-4 minutes until slightly toasted.
6. Deglaze with the lemon juice and add the grated lemon zest and fresh parsley.
7. Season with salt and pepper, finishing with the remaining olive oil before serving.

Tips

• The lemon zest adds a powerful aroma without adding calories—always use an organic lemon.
• Pea protein has a very neutral taste, making it the perfect base for delicate spring vegetables.
