Asparagus -- Spears

Mash up 1 maggi chicken cube or any other chicken stock cube, 1 level dessertspoon gelatine. Cut top off tin asparagus spears - put a little juice into cup with gelatine and cube (mashed), let stand a little while, put over boiling water to dissolve (liquid). Pour rest of juice into jug, then pour back into tin. Fridge 3 hours. Use old fashioned tin opener - air causes asparagus to slide out easily. Place on lettuce leaves and decorate with tomato rings.
