This week’s French Fridays with Dorie is asparagus. And bacon! Hooray! I really liked this recipe and it was very simple. We had it on the side of the Fennel-crusted Tuna. I made a half recipe and in lieu of a nut oil, I used olive oil and tossed in a few toasted almonds. Delicious (and very photogenic)!
Okay, here’s a link to everyone’s posts and my photos are below.
Bacon crumbled, red onion chopped.
Asparagus cooked and draining.
Re-heating the bacon and onion.
Tossing it all together.
Delicious!
This was a nice one to photograph but your pictures were still especially wonderful. And that tuna…oh my. I really need to try something like that around here – my guys would go nuts !! Great job and glad you enjoyed it. Nana and I both had two thumbs up for this one but there are not many things that adding bacon and onion don’t deem winners in our book. Except maybe sardines…..
This was so good, wasn’t it?
Looks lovely.
Have a great weekend.
wow your pictures of the asparagus is making me drool!
Tricia: Thanks! I even decreased the bacon a bit! And, ha! Yes, that’s going to be a rough week — sardines & then taxes!
Cher: Thank you! Have a great weekend too
Alice: Thanks!
Loved to photog. this one as well – looks lovely.
You made me smile about the photogenic part! I love it when the food we cook is both delicious and pretty for the camera. The addition of almond slivers is intriguing. I’ll try that next time!
You are right!
It really is gorgeous and a pleasure to photograph!
Your dish looks amazing!
Nice idea to use almonds and olive oil for the nut oil. This was a very pretty dish, and your photos are lovely.
Mmmmm, almonds are a nice choice, too. And the tuna recipe sounds intriguing.
Can’t go wrong with bacon! Yum!
Fennel crusted ahi – where have you been? That sounds delicious! And the asparagus looks terrific too!
