Ingredients
- 1 lb asparagus
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp white miso paste
- 1.5 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Step 2
Rinse the asparagus under cold water and pat dry. Trim off the tough ends of the asparagus (about the bottom 1-2 inches).
Step 3
Place the asparagus on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly and spread them out in a single layer.
Step 4
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crisp around the edges.
Step 5
While the asparagus is roasting, prepare the miso dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and water until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Once the asparagus has finished roasting, remove them from the oven and transfer to a serving platter.
Step 7
Drizzle the miso dressing evenly over the roasted asparagus, then sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for garnish.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
