Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. TrIm the woody ends from the asparagus and peel the lower half of the stalks. Add the asparagus to the boiling water and simmer until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, and cool under running water. Pat very dry. Preheat broiler. Brush a gratin dish just large enough to hold the asparagus in one layer with a tablespoon of the melted butter. In a small bowl toss together the grated chees, bread crumbs, lemon zest and salt. Brush asparagus tops with half of the remaining melted butter. Sprinkle with an even layer of the crumbs. Drizzle with the remaining butter. Broil until the crumbs are golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes, watching carefully so the crumbs don’t burn. |
