["Combine all ingredients except asparagus in a bowl and mix well.", "Shape into slider patties (or larger burgers) and grill (or freeze). When you put the sliders on the grill, also put the asparagus on. Grill both to your liking; just a few minutes works well.", "As Amanda says, in a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, garlic and salt. Add the canola oil, a few drops at a time, whisking vigorously. The aioli will soon thicken, and at that point, slowly pour in the rest of the canola oil, whisking mightily all the time.

I was alone, and used the folded tea towel Amanda suggested to hold my bowl in place but also put a silicone pot holder on top of the towel for good measure.", "Once all the canola oil is incorporated, slowly whisk in the olive oil. Once the olive oil is in, whisk in 3/4 of the toasted and ground cumin and coriander. Taste and season with more salt and cumin/coriander as you like.", "To serve: place two sliders and 6 grilled asparagus spears on a plate. Put a generous knob of aioli in between them. Serve on your favorite bun or with pita on the side. Hummus and/or tzatziki are also really nice with these."]
