My husband clipped this recipe from a magazine about 7 years ago, which is something he had never done before. When he brought it home, I agreed to make it for him, and it was great. Since then, I have served it as a first course at many holiday meals. You can also serve it as an hors d'oeuvres.
SERVES 12
Ingredients
- 24 medium asparagus spears (about 1-1/2 lbs.)
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 1/2 lb imported prosciutto (12 slices)
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.2
Trim asparagus evenly. Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise.3
Place asparagus and boiling water in a large roasting pan and cover tightly with foil.4
Stream asparagus for about 10 to 15 minutes, until tender. Remove asparagus and dry on paper towels. Drain water from roasting pan and dry.5
On a sheet of waxed paper, lay 1 strip of prosciutto. Sprinkle with about 1 t. Parmesan cheese. Place one asparagus spear at 1 end and roll up, slightly overlapping proscuitto as your roll, and covering most of the spear. Repeat with remaining asparagus, prosciutto, and Parmesan cheese.6
Place wrapped asparagus in roasting pan and roast for about 10 minutes, until prosciutto just begins to brown.

I have made these before. They are easy and quick. Great for leftover veggies. Made with leftover Pacific Northwest Stir-Fried Asparagus & Sugar Snap Peas cut back on the cheese to just a very light sprinkle.

Wonderful ! these taste brilliant! the one and only change I made was to bunch my asparagus spears into three's since I didn't have enough prosciutto to wrap them individually. The cheese on the inside of the prosciutto melted and held them together well, so serving them wasn't a probem. Please see my rating System: 4 wonderful stars or a very tasty recipe indeed. Made for Zaar World Tour 2008. Thanks!

My husband and kids loved this recipe. I will certainly make it again but will serve it as an appetizer and not as a side. The flavor is unreal and this is super easy to make. My 12 year old helped me wrap and my 5 year old sprinkled the cheese.
