Grilled Bacon wrapped Asparagus & Lemon
1 packet Fresh Asparagus stalks
1 packet Streaky Bacon
1 x 20x20x3cm Salt Block (Heated)
Black pepper to taste (I prefer using a pepper grinder, as the flavour of pepper is far more fresh)
1 fresh Lemon
2 whole wheels fresh Lemon
- Heat your Salt block.
- Sprinkle water on salt block, if it sizzles and evaporates immediately, it is ready to be used.
- Wash the asparagus stalks gently under cold running water.
- Gently peel the outer layer of the asparagus stalks using a potato peeler.
- Wrap the asparagus stalks with the streaky bacon. 1 strip of bacon per stalk. Set aside.
- Place the bacon wrapped asparagus stalks on the hot salt block.
- Cut the whole lemon in half and gently squeeze some juice over the asparagus.
- Place the 2 lemon wheels on top of the wrapped asparagus stalks.
- Cook until the bacon becomes slightly crispy and golden brown in colour.
- Flip the asparagus stalks over. Gently squeeze a little more lemon juice over the stalks and place the 2 lemon wheels back on top.
- Cook until the bacon becomes slightly crispy and golden brown in colour.
- The asparagus stalks should be slightly soft to the touch, but still "al dente" (soft with a crunch).
Serve to your guests or enjoy just for yourself.
