Ingredients
Preparation steps
Peel, rinse and dice the potatoes. Peel bottom third of the asparagus and cut off the woody ends. Place the peelings with the ends in a pot with 800 ml (approximately 3 1/3 cups) of water with a pinch of salt and sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook about 10 minutes. Drain, saving the cooking water. Cut the peeled asparagus into 3 cm (approximately 1-inch) long pieces and set aside 9 pieces. Simmer asparagus pieces with diced potatoes until soft in the asparagus cooking water, 10-15 minutes. Thaw the peas and add to the soup. Allow to cook 5 minutes and puree everything fine. Add cream and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Remove from heat and let stand briefly.
Sauté 9 reserved pieces of asparagus in a pan with melted butter until golden brown. Pour the soup into bowls, place the fried asparagus pieces on top and serve garnished with freshly ground pepper.
