PARMESAN ASPARAGUS PHYLLO ROLL-UPS WITH LEMON DIPPING SAUCE




It's asparagus time, here at StoneGable... there is nothing like picking those long green stalks right out of the garden!

We can almost watch our asparagus grow! 

I have a SCRUMPTIOUS way to make this yummy spring vegetable... using one of my favorite ingredients... phyllo dough! The roasted asparagus is gently caressed by a crispy, crunch-in-you- mouth blanket of phyllo... and there is the extra flavor of Parmesan cheese that plays so nicely with Asparagus!

It is worth making...




These are so pretty I have served them for company, but easiest enough to make for a weeknight meal.

PARMESAN ASPARAGUS PHYLLO ROLL-UPS 
WITH LEMON DIPPING SAUCE
1 package of phyllo dough
1/2 ~ l cup Parmesan cheese
1 stick butter, melted
30 asparagus spears, washed, woody ends cut and dried
lemon dipping sauce, follows




Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Take pastry out of package and unfold one pack of sheets.  Cover sheets with a just barely damp paper towel when not using.

Remove one sheet of phyllo and put on a work surface. Brush the entire sheet with butter and put another sheet of phyllo on top. Continue until there are six layers of phyllo.







Cut pastry sheets into 6 long strips. Cut from one short end to another.

Srinkle each phyllo strip with Parmesan cheese.






Wind one phyllo strip around each asparagus in a spiral manner starting at the tip. Cut off the extra phyllo at the end of the asparagus

Repeat with the phyllo until all the asparagus is rolled up.

Brush the tops of the phyllo dough with butter and sprinkle with Parmesan.







Put the asparagus on 2 parchment lined baking sheets and bake for 15- 20 minutes, until the phyllo is  lightly golden brown.






Lemon Dipping Sauce






1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 TBS freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 TBS Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, pressed
1 tsp lemon zest
dash of hot sauce
salt and pepper

Put all ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Serve with the asparagus. Chill if not using right away.

  15. Your asparagus looks DIVINE Yvonne, all that delicious Parm! I've had it in puff pastry but the phyllo would be lighter and a better texture for the delicate & tender asparagus! A must try recipe for spring, thank you!
