Ingredients

1 small onion minced
1 x salt
1 1/2 teaspoons capers rinsed & chopped
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 x salt and black pepper to taste
1 each mint leaf
1 pound asparagus thin

Directions

Place onion & salt in a bowl large enough to hold the asparagus. Mix well & let steep for 30 minutes.

Add the capers, lemon juice & mint leaf & marinate for at least 1 hour. Mix thoroughly from time to time.

Meanwhile, bring an asparagus cooker to a boil & cook the asparagus until tender but still crisp, about 3 minutes. Drain.

Broccoli Italian Style

Great way to serve brocolli. I add a bit of lemon juice, smidge of seasame oil (tastes more like Asian brocolli than Italian). Cook/steam the brocolli in a few tablespoons of water in a pot with a tight fitting lid instead of boiling. No more than 5 minutes in my opinion or it's overdone.
