A delightful twist on a classic, this creamy asparagus toast is perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Cut the asparagus into bite-sized pieces.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts and preserve the asparagus's texture.
Boil the asparagus in a saucepan with water until tender.
Add a pinch of salt to the water to enhance the asparagus's natural flavor.
Mix the flour with the milk in a bowl until smooth.
Whisk thoroughly to avoid lumps in the sauce.
Drain the asparagus, reserving some of the cooking liquid.
Save about half a cup of the cooking liquid to adjust the sauce's consistency if needed.
Combine the milk mixture, reserved liquid, salt, and pepper in the saucepan. Cook until thickened.
Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from sticking to the pan.
Toast the bread slices until golden brown.
For extra flavor, you can lightly butter the bread before toasting.
Serve the creamed asparagus over the toasted bread.
Garnish with a sprinkle of black pepper or fresh herbs for a touch of elegance.
