Description
This easy but elegant dish makes a great starter, and each bundle is one perfect serving.
Method
Step 1 of 3
Preheat the oven to 230°C. Trim the asparagus spears of their woody ends, put them on a plate, and rub with 1 tbsp of olive oil. Season well.
Step 2 of 3
Lay a slice of the prosciutto on a board and put one-quarter of the asparagus spears in the middle. Carefully wrap the prosciutto around the asparagus to make a neat parcel, leaving the tips exposed. Lay it on a baking tray with the join of the meat facing down. Repeat to make 4 parcels. Brush the prosciutto with the remaining olive oil.
Step 3 of 3
Bake at the top of the hot oven for 15 minutes, until the prosciutto is crispy and the asparagus cooked through. Serve as it is, or with a Hollandaise sauce, or a poached egg.
