Steps:

• Place the asparagus in the oven and roast for 15 minutes.
• Reduce the heat on the water until the bubbles in the water have subsided.
• Gently crack and drop the eggs into the water. Cook the eggs for 3 to 4 minutes. When done, the whites will be cooked through and the yolks will be warm but still liquid.
• Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the eggs from the saucepan and blot the bottom of the spoon on a paper towel before plating the egg.
• Remove the asparagus from the oven.
