I make a VERY similar recipe that everyone asks for when I serve it. I roll the asparagus in the oil and MINCED GARLIC and then roast as directed. Near the end of roasting sprinkle on the balsamic vinegar and grated parmasean cheese and put under broiler for a few minutes. It is outrageous and pretty!

Great recipe. I only added grated parmesan at the end. Fussy husband loves this one.
