Shiso Wrapped Asparagus Recipes

PROSCIUTTO-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°F: Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
• Prepare the asparagus: Rinse and pat dry the asparagus. Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Set asparagus spears aside. (Reserve the snapped ends for another meal, if you like.)
• Wrap the asparagus with prosciutto: Cut prosciutto slices in half down their length. Wrap each spear of asparagus with one strip of sliced prosciutto. Tug the prosciutto a little as you wrap it around the asparagus to give it tension. This helps to ensure that the prosciutto wraps around the asparagus tightly. Lay the wrapped asparagus spears on the lined sheet pan.
• Drizzle the asparagus with 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil: Sprinkle a pinch of black pepper on top.
• Bake the asparagus for 8 to 10 minutes: When done, the asparagus will be bright green and easily pierced with a fork, and the prosciutto will be crisped around the edges.

WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Combine lemon juice, olive oil and garlic in large bowl. Add asparagus; toss to coat. Place asparagus in baking pan.
• Bake 8 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Let cool to room temperature (about 15 minutes).
• Cut each prosciutto slice in half lengthwise. Spread each piece with about 1 teaspoon goat cheese. Wrap each slice in a spiral around each asparagus spear. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

ASPARAGUS WRAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Mix butter, seasoning blend and garlic salt. Unfold puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface. Spread each with 1-1/2 tablespoons butter mixture and sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese. Top with prosciutto, pressing lightly to adhere., Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut each sheet into 12 strips (about 1/2 in. thick). Wrap each strip, filling side in, around an asparagus spear; place on parchment-lined baking sheets., Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

SHISO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix miso, mirin and sake until it becomes a smooth paste.
• Cut the asparagus into similar length as the width of shiso leaves, and boil for 3 minutes.
• While the asparagus is being cooked, gently wash the shiso leaves and pat them dry with a paper towel. Lay them flat, and pour about 1/3 teaspoon of miso-mirin-sake paste on top.
• Scoop the boiled asparagus pieces from the pot, and pat them dry with a paper towel.
• Place a piece of asparagus on top of the shiso leaves and carefuly take one end of the shiso leaf and wrap the asparagus. Don't worry if some of the miso paste comes out from the sides.
• After all the aparagus pieces are wrapped by shiso leaves, pour some oil in a heated pan and carefully stirfry them for a minute or two, rotating them around so they are evenly cooked.
• Remember, the asparagus is already cooked, so you don't need to stirfry for too long!

ASPARAGUS WRAPS WITH LEMON MAYO

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil, tip in the asparagus and cook for 2 mins until just tender. Drain well. Quarter each slice of ham, into 4 shorter strips, then wrap one around the middle of each asparagus spear. Mix the mayo with the lemon zest and juice and a little pepper and put in a small bowl. Serve with the asparagus, warm or cold, for dipping.

Transfer to small plate. Top with another small plate and invert cheese crisp. Slide crisp back into skillet, browned side up, and cook until crisp and brown on bottom, about 3 minutes longer.
