Provided by hcardall
Number Of Ingredients 19
Steps:
- Lemon Herb Sriracha Dip: Mix all ingredients together, cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes. Asparagus: 1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a skillet over medium-low heat, toast the panko breadcrumbs until lightly golden. Transfer to a plate and add salt. Toss to combine. 2. In a bowl beat eggs and water together to create an egg wash and pour onto a plate. Set up a "work station" with the asparagus, flour that has been placed on a plate, egg wash, toasted panko crumbs with parmesan cheese mixed together, and a baking sheet. 3. To bread the asparagus: First roll an asparagus spear in flour, then egg wash, and then panko crumbs - pressing to adhere. Repeat with remaining asparagus. Place the breaded asparagus on the baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes until the asparagus is cooked but still crunchy. 4. If you had not not completed the sauce yet...While the asparagus is baking, make the dipping sauce. Place all ingredients for the sauce in a bowl and stir to combine, it still needs to sit for at least 30 minutes, so it is best to do this first. 5. Plate, serve, and watch these disappear.

Steps:

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan.
- Rinse asparagus and break off woody bottoms. Peel if thick. Lay stalks in a baking dish that will hold them in two or three layers. If the asparagus are thick, add a splash of water. Drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper; place in oven.
- Roast until the asparagus are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Test for doneness by piercing a spear with point of a sharp knife; it should slide in but meet a little resistance. (Up to this point, the recipe can be made as much as two hours before serving; just leave asparagus at room temperature.).
- Turn on broiler and place rack as close as possible to heating element. Top asparagus with cheese-crumb mixture and run under broiler to brown for 1-2 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

CRUNCHY BAKED FRIES
I never thought I would prefer a baked "fry" over a regular french fry until I tried these. Wow! It is all in the preparation, and it may seem tricky at first, but once you have the technique down, you will be making these all the time. Follow the instructions carefully for best results.

Steps:
- Peel potatoes and cut them into evenly sliced "fry" wedges.
- Set oven at 475 degrees.
- Place potatos in large bowl and cover with warm tap water for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, coat 18 X 12 non stick baking sheet with 4 tablespoons of oil, and sprinkle evenly with 3/4 teaspoon of seasoned salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
- Drain potatoes, and dry them completely on a triple layer of paper towels (keeping them dry here is key). Wipe out empty bowl, return potatoes, and toss with remaining 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Arrange potatoes in a single layer on baking sheet; cover tightly with foil, and bake 10 minutes.
- Remove foil, and return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes.
- In the last 5 minutes, check for doneness by using a spatula to check for a golden brown color underneath. Turn the fries, and return to the oven for a golden color on the flip sides.
- Dab with a paper towel to remove excess oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper to taste. Yum!

ASPARAGUS FRIES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE DIP
I love these crispy asparagus spears as a greener alternative to french fries. They are great as an appetizer or served as a side with just about any entrée. Kids might not know the difference, and they're a great way to stealthily get some vegetables into anyone's diet.

Steps:
- For the sour cream and chive dip: Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, chives, garlic, lemon zest and juice and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. You can make this up to 2 days before as it gets better tasting with time.
- For the asparagus tempura: Fill a 9- to 11-inch saucepan, large pot or large Dutch oven with about 4 inches of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 to 360 degrees F. Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
- Whisk the flour, cornstarch and baking soda together in a large bowl. Transfer half of the of the flour mixture to a second large bowl. Keep the club soda nearby, but don't make the batter until you're ready to fry.
- Create an assembly line from left to right: the asparagus, one bowl of flour mixture for dredging and the second bowl of flour mixture that will become your tempura batter.
- When you're ready to fry, stir the club soda into the second bowl of flour.
- To fry, use your fingers to dip 2 to 3 asparagus spears into the dredging flour, shake off the excess, then dip in the batter. Lay or slide the coated asparagus into the hot oil and deep-fry until golden, about 3 minutes, turning it in the oil for even cooking. Lift the cooked asparagus with tongs or a spider and let excess oil drip back into the pan before transferring to the prepared wire rack. Skim the surface of the oil occasionally to keep it clean and to fish out stray crispy tempura bits.
- Bring the oil back to 350 to 360 degrees F between batches. Stir the batter to keep it from separating, then repeat with the remaining asparagus. Serve the fries immediately with the dip.

Salty and savory, the roasting method kills the natural bitterness of asparagus. Try it next to grilled fish or lamb.
