SAVORY ASPARAGUS SPRING ROLLS
Steps:
- Bring a medium pan of water to a boil. Blanch the asparagus until crisp-tender, 1 to 3 minutes depending on the thickness of the asparagus. Plunge the asparagus into ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and pat dry. Cut each asparagus in half so that you have 2 pieces about 3 inches each.
- For the stalk halves of the asparagus: Place a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with the corner pointed toward you. Lightly brush the center of the wrapper with oyster sauce. Lay a piece of the stalk-half of asparagus across the wrapper from corner to corner. Fold in the side corners of the wrapper toward the middle, fold up the bottom corner and then roll up. Seal the top of the wrapper by brushing some of the cornstarch mixture along the edges of the wrapper to help seal. Put the rolls onto a plate seam-side down while making the remaining rolls.
- For the spear end of the asparagus: Place a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface with square to you. Lightly brush the middle of the wrapper with oyster sauce. Lay a piece of asparagus with the tip overhanging the edge away from you. Fold up the bottom toward the center. Fold in one side of the wrapper toward the middle and then roll up. Use cornstarch mixture along the edge of the wrapper as a paste to help seal. Put onto a plate seam-side down while preparing the remaining rolls.
- Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat and add some of the vegetable oil. Add the rolls a few at a time and shallow fry, turning as they become golden brown; do not fry too many at one time and overcrowd the skillet. Once golden, remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
- On a small plate, mix together the black and white sesame seeds. Brush the cooked rolls with a little honey, and then roll them in the sesame seeds and serve.
Tips
- When choosing asparagus, look for spears that are firm and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp or have woody ends. - To prevent the asparagus from becoming too limp, blanch it before wrapping it in ham. Blanching involves boiling the asparagus for a short time and then immediately transferring it to an ice bath. - Use a thin slice of ham for each asparagus roll. This will help to keep the rolls delicate and prevent them from becoming too salty. - If you are using a strong-flavored cheese, such as blue cheese or goat cheese, use a mild-flavored ham. This will help to balance out the flavors. - Serve the asparagus rolls immediately or store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. ###Conclusion
Asparagus ham rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both elegant and flavorful. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give asparagus ham rolls a try.
