- This is fantastic! I served with a simple roasted chicken and mushrooms. I will be using this recipe often.
- Hi Daphne; Made this recipe last night, and WOW, just loved it. I have been cooking the asparagus in the Microwave up until now, but will certainly be making yours again. Different and very tasty. Thanks for posting. "Uncle Bill"

- I made this last night,my broiler doesn't work at the moment so I roasted them at 450 degress for the reccommend time. This a great dish and a nice change from just steaming. Will make on regular basis! Thanks,Daphne2002
- This was very easy and quick to make, as promised. I enjoyed the sesame taste. However,it was not overly remarkable and I probably won't make it again.
