Instructions

Preheat oven to 360℉
Rinse and cut the hard bottom of the asparagus. Dry them well and place them on a cookie sheet over parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus and season with salt and pepper. Place in the hot oven and bake for 10 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the heavy cream. Once well incorporated, add the grated parmesan cheese and mix well again.
Add the egg cheese mixture in a small saucepan and warm up over low heat until all the cheese has melted. Add the butter and continue mixing until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a dish, spread two full tablespoons of the parmesan sauce, place the asparagus over them, parmesan shaving (optional), and a couple of grinds of black pepper.
Serve immediately.
