Breaded asparagus is fried in oil then served with a green chili mayonnaise dipping sauce. A big hit at any dinner party where I have served this. Ingredients:
12 asparagus spears |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour |
2 eggs, beaten |
2 cups fresh bread crumbs |
1/2 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed |
1 cup mayonnaise |
2 green chile peppers, finely sliced |
15 dashes hot pepper sauce (such as tabasco®), or to taste |
Directions:
1. Dampen asparagus lightly with water. Coat with flour; trying to avoid coating the tips.
2. Dip asparagus in beaten egg.
3. Roll and coat asparagus in a layer of breadcrumbs.
4. Place coated asparagus on a plate and refrigerate, allowing coating to stick, 15 to 20 minutes.
5. Stir mayonnaise, green chilies, and hot pepper sauce together in a small bowl for dipping sauce.
6. Heat vegetable oil in a fry pan over medium heat.
7. Fry coated asparagus in the hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
