In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until softened and fragrant.
Add the asparagus spears and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes until the asparagus is tender.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend just half of it.
Season with salt, pepper, and freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and reserved asparagus tips.

For a richer taste, you can add a splash of heavy cream before serving.
