Method
- Heat the barbecue until the coals are glowing and there are no flames or turn your gas barbecue to high.
- Roll theasparagusspears inolive oiland salt. Cook on the barbecue until slightly blackened and wilted – depending on the thickness of the spears, 5-10 minutes.
- Remove to a plate and drizzle withlemonjuice. Crumble or grate over your choice of cheese so that it melts a little on contact with the hot asparagus and forms a cheesy dressing.
