Fish Burgers served with Asparagus

I had some asparagus in the fridge, and was wondering what to do with it, I mean its almost a perfect side for anything, the problem was the anything. So after some thought and going through my freezer and pantry I decided to try making some fish burgers. First time experience ... so I kind of improvised. The end result ... not bad if I say so myself. It was very healthy and light meal that I will definitely try again.

Ingredients for two:

300 g of boneless white fish
1 jalapeño pepper
1 clove of garlic
3/4 stalks of fresh coriander
1 lemon grass stalk, pale section only, finely chopped
salt
1 tsp.lemon or lime zest
1 tbsp. lemon or lime juice
coconut
1 tbsp. curry powder
2 tbsp. olive oil
----------------------------
12 shoots of asparagus

2 tbsp. olive oil
1 clove of garlic crushed
6/7 crushed pecans
salt

Preparation:

In a food processor process the fish until smooth and transfer to a bowl. Add the pepper, garlic, coriander, lemon grass, lemon zest, and juice to the food processor, and pulse a couple of times until all ingredients are finely chopped. Add them to the bowl with the fish and season with salt.
Shape into patties. In a shallow plate add some shredded coconut and the curry, dredge the patties in the mixture and set aside.
Heat a frying pan with the olive oil, and add the fish burgers to the oil when hot. Allow about 3 minutes on each side or until fish is cooked.
For the asparagus: Steam the asparagus for about 3 minutes. In a frying pan add the oil and garlic, when the garlic starts to change color, add the asparagus and sauté for a few minutes, add the pecans and season with salt.
Serve hot.
