Nothing can top British asparagus when it’s in season, so make the most of it while it’s here with Tom Kerridge’s creamy asparagus and bacon pasta recipe. It’s rich, creamy and salty, but the star of the show is the M&S jumbo Asparagus. It’s the biggest asparagus you can buy, but it’s the sweetest and most tender too. Everything tastes better when it’s in season and this is no exception.
