● 400 gr of wagyu
● 300 gr of asparagus
● Fresh basil leaves
● Extra virgin olive oil (four tablespoons)
● 50 gr of almonds
● One tablespoon of vinegar
● Pepper to taste
● Salt to taste
Preparation
Boil the asparagus in plenty of salted water. Put the asparagus in ice water to stop the cooking process and maintain the color.
In a high-sided glass, place the chopped asparagus, basil leaves and three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and a tablespoon of vinegar.
Blend everything, emulsifying if necessary with a little oil.
Toast the almonds in a small saucepan, making sure they do not burn.
Cut your piece of Wagyu into cubes. Grill them in a hot non-stick pan without adding fat. Seal the meat on all sides.
Start composing the dish: spread a spoonful of asparagus cream, place your cubes and add the almonds.
Decorate with a few leaves of fresh basil (perhaps you can also use the flowers) and a drizzle of EVO oil.
