How to Cook Asparagus Wrapped In Parma Ham
- Melt the butter. Trim the cut ends of the asparagus and wrap each spear in a slice of Prosciutto ham. Lay them on a baking tray, brushing them lightly with the melted butter to ensure they do not stick.
- Cook in a preheated moderate oven (Mk 4 - 350ºF - 180ºC) for 10-15 minutes (depending on the thickness of the asparagus) until the asparagus is nicely roasted and the ham is crispy. Serve hot.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
You can use black forest ham instead of prosciutto if you want a greater depth of flavour. If serving as part of a meal, you can also grate a little hard cheese (like Cheddar) over the spears halfway through cooking.
