Directions:
1. Blanch the asparagus for 2 minutes then refresh under cold water.
2. Cut each mozzarella slice in half and sit both pieces on top of 2 spears of asparagus.
3. Top with 2 more spears then wrap the asparagus in prosciutto so the mozzarella is enclosed (you will need 2 or 3 strips).
4. Heat a little olive oil in a pan, then carefully fry the parcels until the prosciutto has crisped and the mozzarella oozes.
5. Whisk together the olive oil and vinegar and add the basil.
