INGREDIENTS
- 300 g puff pastry
- 6 pcs white asparagus
- 1 egg yolk
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Salt
- Pepper
INGREDIENTS FOR PARMESAN DIP
- 100 g homemade mayonnaise
- 40 g sour cream
- 50 g Parmesan
- 1 tablespoon wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- Salt
- Pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- 1Using a potato peeler, peel the top layer off the asparagus. Leave the tip unpeeled. Place all peeled asparagus on a work surface, align the tips, and trim the ends so that all stalks are the same size. This will also remove any woody ends that might remain tough even after cooking.
- 2Unroll the puff pastry onto a work surface. If you have unrolled dough, roll it out to a thickness of about 1-2 mm.
- 3Cut the dough into longer rectangles, roughly 3 times wider than the asparagus stalk and 2-3 cm longer than the asparagus length.
- 4Place an asparagus stalk on a rectangle so that the tip protrudes over the dough. Brush one long side of the dough with egg yolk. Fold the bottom, short side of the dough over the end of the asparagus. Season the asparagus with salt and pepper and roll it into the dough. Prepare all asparagus this way and place them in the freezer for 10 minutes.
- 5Finally, fry them in well-heated oil until golden brown.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE DIP
- 1In a bowl, combine mayonnaise with sour cream. Add vinegar, milk, and Parmesan. Mix well, taste, and season with salt and pepper as needed.
