Hit the local farmers market and stock up! This quick, simple side dish is a perfect complement to any meal. The fish sauce gives it a wonderful depth of flavor without much effort. —Julie Peterson, Crofton, Maryland


Test Kitchen tips
  • The key ingredient to this side dish—besides the tasty mix of herbs and spices—is fish sauce. This is a smart way to supply a burst of rich flavor even when you're short on time.
  • It's easy to prepare asparagus for cooking. Simply grasp the spear in both hands and snap the bottom off. The spear will break naturally to separate the tough root end from the more tender, edible stalk.
