Ingredients

  • 12 asparagus spears
  • 6 prosciutto slices
  • lime juice from half lime
  • olive oil
  • butter

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Wash asparagus and cut off the ends
  2. Put lime juice on the asparagus
  3. Cut prosciutto strips into two halves, going lengthways, so you end up with 12 strips
  4. Place each prosciutto strip on a cutting board at a 45 degree angle
  5. Place one of the asparagus spears on top of the meat, perpendicular to it (The tip of the asparagus should be lined up with the bottom of the prosciutto strip)
  6. Wrap the bottom end of prosciutto over the asparagus and holding the meat tight, start rolling the asparagus up
  7. The prosciutto strip will wrap around the whole length of the spear because it’s on an angle (Don’t worry if parts of the asparagus spears are not covered completely)
  8. Heat some olive oil and butter in a large, flat frying pan to sizzling hot
  9. Fry wrapped asparagus spears for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until prosciutto is brown and crispy
  10. Enjoy
