2teaspoons olive oil
1each shallot very finely diced
1pound asparagus spears snapped and cut into one inch pieces

Melt the butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds.

Mix in a small bowl with the lemon juice, curry powder and salt.

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook until softened for a couple of minutes.

Add the asparagus and cook for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally until just barely tender but still a bit crisp. Stir in the curry butter, toss well to coat.

Serve warm.

Sometimes I add 1/2 a red bell pepper diced along with the shallots and it makes for a lovely colorful sidedish.
