"This simple recipe is reminiscent of tomato mozzarella - but is much creamier and comes in a lukewarm spring version. Burrata tastes similar to mozzarella, but has a creamy filling. It is accompanied by crunchy green asparagus, pan-fried and lightly caramelized. All that's missing is a dash of wild garlic pesto vinaigrette and fresh bread! A tip: you can replace the green asparagus with white asparagus, zucchinis, fennel, carrots or tomatoes. You can also swap the wild garlic pesto for basil pesto or a green pesto of your choice."

  • Step 1/3

    • 800 g green asparagus

    Wash the green asparagus, peel the lower third if necessary and remove the woody ends.

  • Step 2/3

    • 3 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp maple syrup
    • 1 nonstick pan (large)

    Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick pan and fry the asparagus on all sides over a medium heat. Season with salt, add the maple syrup and lightly caramelize the asparagus. Fry the stalks for 6-8 minutes, depending on their thickness, until they are cooked but still slightly firm to the bite.

  • Step 3/3

    • 5 tbsp wild garlic pesto
    • 2 olive oil
    • 2 dashes lemon juice
    • 2 pinches lemon zest
    • 400 g burrata cheese
    • 1 bowl

    For the vinaigrette, mix the pesto with the olive oil, lemon juice and lemon zest until smooth. Serve the pan-warm asparagus with the burrata and drizzle with the vinaigrette. Serve with fresh toasted bread.
