Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lbs. asparagus spears trimmed
  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ½ cups finely chopped shallots about 10
  • ½ pounds boiling potatoes peeled and cut into ½-inch slices

Instructions
 

  • Set aside 8 spears of asparagus to garnish. With the remaining asparagus, chop into 1-inch slices.

Cover and turn heat up to medium-high heat and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and stir in bouillon cube and salt. Cover and cook until potatoes are fork tender (about 20 mins); stirring occasionally.

Divide between 4 bowls and garnish with asparagus spears and if desired, freshly chopped parsley. Serve while hot.
