I love your vegetable assassin film, especially as you saved the asparagus. They're delicious at the moment, so wanted to share my recipe for asparagus nori wraps:
Asparagus Nori Wraps
Asparagus is in season tasting as delicious as ever and ridiculously healthy and nutritious! For a vegetable they have a pretty good protein score and are a good source of fibre. Asparagus is high in vitamin K, vitamin A, folic acid and iron, lots of things that we nutritional therapists encourage you to eat. I’ve been using them recently in nori wraps, in fact I took some to my clinic at Urban Bliss on Saturday which went down very well. I like to share lovely healthy and delicious tasting food, so here’s how to make them:
• 2 spears of asparagus, lightly steamed
• 2 sheets of Nori
• brown rice
• hummus
• brown rice miso
• basil & coriander, chopped
• selection of ½ avocado, cucumber strips, red pepper, spring onions all sliced thinly or mashed (avocado)
Place the nori sheet shinny side on a rolling mat (you can do without, just do it on a breadboard). Spread the sheet with a thin layer brown rice miso paste. Spread a strip (about 2 inches) of hummus across the sheet, place an avocado spear across the sheet then add layers of the other ingredients. I normally finish with the brown rice (still warm) over the sheet, but leave a 2 cm edge on one side that you are going to roll towards.
Roll up as tightly as possible, the sheet will seal itself. The cut into 6 with a sharp knife, it will look like little sushi portions. Repeat with the second sheet and enjoy!
