Green asparagus, boiled in salted water until crisp tender, served with a dressing made with hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, fresh herbs and truffle oil. Low-carb, high in protein and fiber, gluten-free and the combination of flavour make this salad a perfect spring time lunch.
|
- Cut the tomatoes into 5mm thick dices. Place them in a sieve over a bowl and reserve the strained liquid. Roughly chop and parsley and slice the chives into rings.
- Half the eggs and crumble one egg yolk in a small bowl together with truffle mustard, white wine vinegar, and reserved tomato juice. Whisk until everything is combined. Beat in truffle oil and sunflower oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Finely chop the remaining egg whites and egg yolk. Stir chopped eggs, diced tomatoes and herbs into the dressing. Set aside for 30 minutes for the flavours to develop.
- In a large, deep skillet, add enough salted water to reach a depth of 2 inches. Bring it to a boil. Add the asparagus and cook until crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water and let stand until chilled. Drain and pat dry. Arrange the asparagus in a serving dish, drizzle with prepared dressing.

such a lovely dish! I'm so addicted to asparaguses! I eat them every single day!:D
Scrumptious! This sauce must taste fantastic.
Cheers,

One of those veggies I miss out here. Love it in any form!
Beautiful dressing! I am sure it goes well with asparagus :)
I am sure it tastes wonderful. Unfortunately, although we produce asparagus in Greece they are all exported and what little stays for local consumption is too expensive for us!
what a unique way to serve asparagus! beautiful presentation too. :)
I love asparagus. Always looking for a new method of preparation. This looks amazing!
I adore boiled eggs with asparagus Angie - but this salad sounds AND looks so much better than what I usually eat!
This is a great dish - love the low-carb bonus :) We still have some asparagus growing in the garden so I'll have to give this a try. I haven't worked with truffle oil or mustard before but I am very curious! Have a great week.
I like asparagus very much but the way we cooked asparagus is different. Your recipe looks yummy too.
Wow, this dish sounds completely scrumptious!!!
I love asparagus!

I love this combination of flavors together, especially at this time of year.
I love the idea of that chunky tomato dressing, I bet it would be good with lots of things.
Asparagus served any way is terrific. I'd love this salad!
I cannot get enough of asparagus right now! And with those eggs?? This looks just delicious!

Very simple but flavourful very curious about this truffles n truffle oil have seen ppl swoon with the mere mention of truffles
The "truffle-based" topping-dressing make this asparagus dish so gourmet!
You've just proven that there is always another delicious recipe out there for asparagus. Love it Angie!
Great way to prepare asparagus...and I love the idea of truffle oil...looks delicious Angie!
Have a great week :)
lovely spring recipe
Ooh yum, that's a rather decadent way to serve asparagus.
I just scored some fresh asparagus at the farmer's market on Sunday (good ones are still hard to find even in season!). I love how you prepared this...I remember seeing a dressing made with eggs in a magazine and thinking that sounded sensational. This is "fancy" enough for company.
I've never seen truffle mustard - this would be so good for brunch, lunch or dinner!
I made this lovely recipe this midday! My hubby Peter & I both loved it all! xxx
It was a perfect green asparagus dish! x
Your photos are gorgeous, and I've only just discovered truffle oil --- I'm sold!
This is a delightful way to prepare asparagus, Angie! What a perfect spring time lunch this would make.
I could eat just this dish for a meal and be perfectly happy!
This looks like such an elegant spring dish! We can't get enough of asparagus lately and this sounds so good with the eggs and truffle oil!
Dear Angie, A beautiful presentation of asparagus the dressing sounds wonderful. xoxo Catherine
You know what? I just had asparagus for breakfast. I love asparagus. Superb photographs always!
Such a perfect spring veggie dish, I have yet to buy asparagus this season but adore them. Great pairing with the Truffle oil!

Looks delightful and not your run of the mill asparagus recipe. Love it!
Asparagus is in season now, thanks for a timely recipe.
This looks gorgeous and has to taste yummy. I love that tomato dressing!
Spotted some nice asparagus yesterday but I didn't get it as I am at lost how else to eat it. Now looking at yours, I regretted not grabbing a bundle.
We made an egg topping for asparagus for French Fridays with Dorie and yours looks just as yummy! I know Bill is tired of the plain roasted asparagus I cook each week---so this is a terrific option!
I have never tried asparagus in this way!! gonna try this version sooner...very tempting!!
This sounds like a great way to serve asparagus. Very yummy!
This combo of flavors is my absolute FAVORITE! I am going to pin this right now!
I just adore asparagus! It's just in its peak season in our area and we've been grabbing it whenever we see it. This topping is very unique and sounds quite delicious!
That dressing sounds so fresh and delicious!
Yum!! This looks so pretty and delicious. I could eat truffle oil on just about anything!
Love the presentation, very healthy and delicious salad..
Love this, Angie! That truffle mustard really does the trick!
Great recipe. Love asparagus and the tomatoes make them extra delicious:)

Lovely way to dress up asparagus. Fresh flavours all round :)
Spring Asparagus and truffle oil sound like matched made in heaven!!
That's one of my favorite lunches, Angie. Beautiful photos and I love that you used truffle oil...I have some, so will be enjoying this dish soon.
We could eat asparagus every day of the week and I'm very happy to have your lovely recipe, Angie. This is different than the ways I usually serve asparagus and it will be fun to try.
Wow, such a beautiful and delicious asparagus dish!
Oh your photos are gorgeous Angie! And the asparagus...so beautifully dressed! : )
yum! The asparagus dish looks awesome! I love truffle oil! Must be delicious!
Hi
I just have to say I loved this asparagus dish !
Its so inviting and one just wants to dive in. I can see the asparagus is perfectly cooked and the topping there is great. Boiled eggs can be used in endless ways. Another version of this dish could be serving the dressing warm by sauté together onion, parsley, chives, capers, anchovies and hard boiled eggs as you have them.
Lovely dish Angie and great photo !
Thanks Oli
What a great idea…I love the topping you made for the delicious asparagus. It makes a colorful addition to a meal.
This is one veggie that we don't get easily in Indian and if by luck we do, it costs a bomb. I am pretty tempted by this dish :)
I have some asparagus to use up right now and this is going to happen to them.
Absolutely fresh and a wonderful recipe. That dressing sounds ridiculously good. Simple always wins.
a different & interesting recipe...............love to try.

What a great dish to celebrate the season of the year. I am in Europe right now and I was looking forward to enjoy asparagus once again. Thanks for sharing Angie. :)

ps; carefull with the portion of truffle oil, it's laxative and it's really work on me....

I love asparagus and this dressing is a lovely idea with seasonal ingredients and so tasty.

The asparagus is so colorful and fresh looking, and the combination with eggs and a fresh vinaigrette is definitely perfection.
