✨ Recipe✨

  • 1 bunch asparagus (about 24) - ends trimmed

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

  • salt pepper

  • 2 sheets frozen puff pastry - thawed

  • 1 1/2 cups Gruyere cheese shredded (or favourite sharp cheese of choice!)

  • 8-12 slices prosciutto

  • 1 egg beaten

How-To

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

  2. Trim ends off asparagus, toss in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  3. Shred cheese, set aside.

  4. Roll out or unfold your thawed out puff pastry. Cut each in half lengthwise then widthwise to create 4 equal parts - 8 in total.

  5. Lay down a slice of prosciutto, followed by 3-4 asparagus spears, then your shredded cheese. Repeat on all eight pastry squares.

  6. Lift two opposite corners of the puff pastry squares and wrap them around the asparagus and press to seal. Brush puff pastry with egg wash. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper.

  7. Bake in oven for about 20 minutes or until puff pastry has puffed & turned a beautiful golden colour.

These are best enjoyed straight out of the oven , so serve immediately!
