Cut off the woody ends of the asparagus and trim off the tough outer skin towards the bottom of the stems.
Put in a steamer and steam over salted water for 8-12 mins depending on the size and thickness of the stalks.
While the Asparagus in steaming chop a rasher or two of bacon and fry in a pan until crispy, add a couple of tea spoons full of capers and grate some lemon zest into the pan.
when the Asparagus is cooked rolling the pan with the bacon and plate with a good scatering of chopped mint and a squeeze of lemon juice.
