All the flavors and textures tastes perfectly with the white asparagus: on the one hand we have the thyme leaves, aromatic and delicate and the leaves of arugula; On the other hand, crisp fried onion that provides a crispy texture to the recipe; And finally the potato alioli, that remember me my childhood, when my grandfather or my uncle used to make it with the mortar.
This recipe is for a new monthly challenge «veo, veo» (we can translate it like «I can see, I can see»).
What is the challenge? Each month we will be provided with a photo of a finished dish food and, without knowing the ingredients or the cooking techniques, the participants to the challenge must guess and reproduce the recipe as accurately as possible the photograph. Sounds easy? This month Blanca has been good and most of the ingredients could be guessed easily, however this is the first month, so do not trust, that level will go up.
