Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4 to 6 as a side dish

Ingredients

1 bunch (about 20) ramps
1 bunch thin asparagus
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat a grill or grill pan on medium-high heat. Trim and discard the root hairs from the ramps. Trim the tough ends from the asparagus.

    Step 2

    Place the ramps and asparagus on a baking sheet or in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, and toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.

    Step 3

    Arrange the ramps and asparagus on the hot grill in a single layer. Grill until hot and grill marks appear, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a platter, and serve hot or at room temperature.
