4. Fry the asparagus pieces in a large pan with olive oil until they are lightly colored. Then add the prawns to the asparagus, fry them and season with sea salt and a little pepper (cayenne pepper or chilli if necessary). Now deglaze with the lemon and garlic mixture, fry briefly and then stir in the crème fraîche. Add the collected pasta water (about half a cup) until the desired consistency is reached. The sauce should still be slightly creamy.
