Prosciutto and Asparagus Bundles Involtini di Prosciutto e Asparagi

Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds medium asparagus
  • 8 thin slices prosciutto (about 6 to 7 ounces)
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 15890344_240X180.jpg
Directions:
Cook asparagus in salted boiling water or steam them until tender but still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Place them in a large bowl of ice to stop the cooking. Drain again and pat dry with paper towels. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Butter a large baking pan. Put the prosciutto slices on a working surface and place 4 to 5 asparagus in the center of each slice. Sprinkle asparagus with some Parmigiano and dot with a little butter. Roll prosciutto loosely around the asparagus and place in the baking dish. Top them with some more Parmigiano and butter. Bake until the cheese and butter are melted and the bundles just begin to color. Serve at once.

Makes four to six servings
