This is not the dish to eat just before having a cholesterol test, but at other times it's quite tasty! My preference is to use vary fat asparagus, but thinner ones will do as well.

2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
salt and freshly ground white pepper
60 g chilled butter, diced

350 g to 450 asparagus, trimmed and peeled
60 ml heavy cream
