Method

4 steps · 10 minutes

Snap the woody ends off the asparagus.
Lay each spear flat on a board and pull a vegetable peeler along it from the tip toward the base to make long, thin ribbons. Slice the last thin strip with a knife.
Toss the ribbons with the oil, lemon juice, zest and a pinch of salt, and leave them for 5 minutes to soften slightly.
Shave the pecorino over the top with the peeler and finish with plenty of black pepper.
