Prosciutto And Carrot Bundles Recipes

PROSCIUTTO BUNDLES

Steps:

• Cut each slice of prosciutto into 2 to 3 strips. Slice each fig in half, and spread a teaspoon of goat cheese onto the cut half of each of the figs.
• Place the piece of fig cheese side down onto the center of a strip of prosciutto ham. Then roll the fig up in the prosciutto to make it into a parcel.
• Place the fig parcels onto a clean plate and serve.

CARROT BUNDLES (PAULA DEEN)

Steps:

• Julienne carrots into 3-inch by 1/4-inch strips. Cook carrots in boiling water for 5 minutes, or just until tender; drain.
• Stack carrots into 8 bundles, and tie with a blanched chive.
• In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar until dissolved. Stir in white wine, and simmer 2 minutes. Add carrot bundles to sauce and cook 3 minutes, or until coated with sauce.

PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS BUNDLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Line a baking sheet will aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.
• In a dish, coat asparagus with olive oil, lemon juice salt and pepper.
• Cut each slice of prociutto in half lengthwise.
• Gather bunches of 5 asparagus (if they are the small ones, other wise use 3 at a time) spears and wrap them in the prociutto and place on the baking sheet.
• Bake at 375 for 15 minutes.

ASPARAGUS AND PROSCIUTTO BUNDLES

Steps:

• Cut stalks from asparagus, leaving 2-inch-long tips. (Reserve asparagus stalks for another use; see note in recipe introduction.) Cook asparagus tips in large pot of boiling salted water until just crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Drain. Transfer asparagus to paper towels and drain well.
• Mix goat cheese, basil, pine nuts, water and orange peel in small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Spread scant 1 teaspoon filling over each prosciutto strip. Arrange 2 asparagus tips atop filling at 1 short end of prosciutto. Roll up prosciutto, enclosing base of asparagus. Press to seal. Place on platter. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
