Prepare the ingredients
1 Prepare the ingredients

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Snap off and discard the tough, woody stem ends of the asparagus; cut into 1/2-inch pieces (keeping the pointed tips intact). Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onions. Medium dice the potatoes. Halve the tomatoes. Peel 1 clove of garlic; using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate into a paste. In a bowl, combine the halved tomatoes, sherry vinegar, and as much of the garlic paste as you’d like. Season with salt and pepper. Place the saffron in a bowl; add 2 teaspoons of hot water. Set aside to steep (or bloom) at least 10 minutes. In a separate bowl, combine the salsa verde and labneh; season with salt and pepper.
