Veggies that don't need a lot of attention

Revelations from this weekend:

• Asparagus is tasty even without salt
• Stir-fried leeks and steamed butternut squash go together fairly well
• Pork looks different from beef (sorry, not a veggie)

The last of the revelations should have been obvious, but remembering how a beef dish should look makes cooking the same dish with pork confusing (if, like me, you weren't paying attention).
