For the bread and asparagus: Drizzle the bread slices with 4 tablespoons of olive oil and bake until it turns golden brown. Slice the asparagus into long strips and season with the remaining olive oil, a drop of lemon juice and ikura. Serving Lay the baked cod on a square plate and top with the toast.
