If like me you are cooking for one - put the asparagus in the bottom of an egg poacher in about half inch of water and it will cook while poaching the eggs on top. saves on the washing up.

Good tip Beryl.
If you're feeling extravagent, another easy way is to roast asparagus for around 15 minutes (180-200c) with a little olive oil to stop them drying out.
I find this method concentrates the flavour nicely, steaming being the next best (with boiling some of the flavour gets lost in the water). Roasting is less time critical so good if (like me) you're not brilliant at getting everything ready fior the table at the same time.
