Bring water to the boil in the bottom of a steamer. Fit the baket into the

until bright green and tender. Remove the steamer from the heat and let the
asparagus cool.

melted. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the lemon juice, chives

tomato wedges. Drizzle the yogurt dressing over the asparagus. Sprinkle
with the salt and pepper and garnish with the fennel.
