Categories     Appetizers

Time 20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 bunch thick asparagus (12-15 spears; about 1 pound), trimmed
12-15 thin slices pancetta
Vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Wrap a slice of pancetta tightly around each asparagus spear. Cover and refrigerate until ready to cook.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium heat and coat lightly with vegetable oil (the more oil you use, the crispier the pancetta will be -- just be careful not to use too much or it will splatter). Cook the asparagus, turning as each side browns, until they are just tender and the pancetta is crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer the asparagus to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess grease, then transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately.

Provided by Dan Barber

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

16 very thin pancetta slices (Italian bacon; about one 3-ounce package)

1 large egg
1 1/2 cups sesame seeds (about 71/2 ounces)
Vegetable oil (for deep-frying)

Steps:

  • Wrap 1 pancetta slice around 1 turnip wedge, covering most of turnip. Repeat with remaining pancetta slices and turnip wedges.

Dip each pancetta-wrapped turnip wedge into beaten egg to coat, then dip into sesame seeds, turning to coat generously on all sides. Place on prepared baking sheet. DO AHEAD: Turnips can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
