For a sophisticated side dish, add saffron lemon butter to tender asparagus.
- Place the butter, lemon juice and saffron in the bowl of a food processor, season with salt and pepper, and process until well combined. Place a 20cm-square piece of foil on a clean work surface. Spoon the butter mixture along 1 edge of the foil. Roll up to form a log and enclose butter mixture. Twist the ends of the foil to seal and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to set.
- Divide the asparagus into 10 even portions. Use unwaxed white kitchen string to secure. Remove foil from butter and cut into 10 even slices.
- Place asparagus in a bamboo steamer over a wok of simmering water (make sure the base of the steamer doesn't touch the water). Steam for 3-5 minutes or until bright green and tender crisp. Remove string from bundles. Top with a slice of butter and serve with turkey.
