The variety of textures in this dish make each bite interesting. It's ideal as a light lunch or entree. Cooking the asparagus sous vide means it maintains great structure and a vibrant green colour. The salty pancetta lifts out all the flavours in the dish and is great for scooping up little crumbles of goat's cheese. Enjoy!
