This is a classic way to serve asparagus. Although not strictly British, hollandaise is one of those must-have sauces with hot asparagus. You’ll need to allow around 250g unprepared weight per person. Asparagus is normally sold in 500g bunches, so buy one for every two people, but watch out - the wrapper can cleverly conceal woody stalks.
