Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash and trim beans and asparagus, tie. 4-6 beans in middle with string and do the same with asparagus.Set to boiling salted water for about 5 minutes, drain well.
- 2
Separate the eggs, whisk the egg white to a peak and make a smooth batter out of egg yolk salt, pepper and flour, gently lift the egg white under. Dip the bundles of asparagus and beans into the batter and float in the hot oil until they are golden brown turning them once. I leave the strings long as they are easier to turn in batter, pan and removal out of pan.
- 3
Serve with slices of lemon. Make sure you carefully remove the string before serving by cutting beans and asparagus in the middle where the string is. Best with a cold beer as a snack

It is best served with a homemade bread that is generously spread with butter and a ice cold pilsner Sigrun
