"If someone had told my pizza loving kid self that one day I'd be enthusiastically piling shaved asparagus high on top of a white pizza I would have a.) never believed them and b.) looked asparagus up in my 1976 edition of encyclopaedia brittanica."

I used my favorite pizza dough, topped with shredded mozzarella, piled on half a bunch of shaved asparagus and topped with crumbled Boursin and a few tablespoons of a lemon chilli oil. This is one instance where the beautiful slim asparagus are not advisable, the hardier ones are easier to peel into shavings. The lemon chilli oil is my addition and so simple - pour half cup of good olive oil into a jar, add a 1/2 to 1 tsp of chilli flakes and the zest of a lemon. Cover, shake and set aside for at least half an hour then drizzle on! It really ups the flavor profile of this pizza.
