PHYLLO WRAPPED CHEESY ASPARAGUS

I was charged with making asparagus for Easter. I am tired of the same old asparagus recipe, so attempted to combine a few that had good components. The outcome was a hit. I hope others agree. I will warn you that my measurements may not be exact, let me know how it goes.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs asparagus spears, cleaned & trimmed
4 ounces cream cheese with vegetables, vegetable flavored
2 tablespoons milk
1 (16 ounce) package phyllo dough, thawed
1/2 cup melted butter
1 (8 ounce) package panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup fresh grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Thin cream cheese with the milk.
  • Carefully unroll phyllo dough and cut 3 strips width-wise. Cover with a damp towel to keep moist while you are working. Layer 3-4 strips of phyllo on your work surface, brushing melted butter and sprinkling some bread crumbs between each layer, as well as on the top. On the top strip additionally, spread some of the cream cheese mixture and sprinkle some of the parmigiano cheese. Take 3 asparagus spears, lay on top of the phyllo strips and wrap around middle/bottom part of asparagus. It should look very pretty with some of the green sticking out on both ends. Brush additional butter on top and sprinkle more parmigiano cheese and bread crumbs.
  • Repeat this process until you are out of asparagus.
  • Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown. Serve warm.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 or 6 sheets phyllo dough (based on 18 by 14-inch sheets which are often sold in packs of 18 to 20)

1 small wheel brie cheese (8 ounces), cut into 16 mini-wedges
16 asparagus tips, blanched

Steps:

Lay out sheet of dough, lightly butter with pastry brush. Fold sheet in half, butter again. Keep buttering and folding in half (probably 3 "folds" total) until you have a rectangle with dimensions close to 4 by 4-inches. Cut into 3 sections. Sprinkle Parmesan on each piece of dough. Crumble a bit of brie on each. Lay asparagus tip on top and roll dough around asparagus. The tip of the asparagus should show out of the end. Repeat to make 16 pieces. Lay all pieces out on a cookie sheet. Brush each piece with butter and bake in oven until golden brown. Serve warm.
