This can be elegant or you can eat it with your fingers. It includes a sauce that is reminiscent of deviled eggs. Ingredients:
16 asparagus spears |
1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste |
1/4 cup sour cream |
1 egg, hard-boiled, peeled, and finely chopped |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley |
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/4 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest |
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
4 slices prosciutto |
Directions:
1. Snap woody ends off asparagus spears. 2. In a large frying pan, bring 3/4 cup water to boil. Add salt and trimmed asparagus, cover, and cook until asparagus is tender, about 4 minutes. Drain, dry and let cool. 3. In a small bowl, combine sour cream, chopped egg, parsley, lemon juice, mustard, lemon zest, and pepper. Add salt to taste. 4. Lay 4 asparagus spears on each piece of prosciutto and roll up. Repeat to form 4 bundles. Serve with sauce. |
