Ingredients

8 or 9 asparagus spears, depending on size
1/2 (16-ounce) package frozen phyllo dough sheets, thawed
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus. Unwrap the phyllo and cut the stack in half lengthwise. Reserve 1 stack for later use. Cover the phyllo with a damp towel to keep it from drying out. Take 1 sheet of phyllo and brush lightly with some melted butter. Sprinkle with some Parmesan. Place 2 to 3 asparagus spears on the short end of the sheet. Roll up, jelly-roll style. Place each piece, seam side down, on a baking sheet. Brush with more melted butter and sprinkle with more Parmesan. Repeat until all the asparagus spears are used up. Place baking sheet in oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Fantastic!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is such a great side/appetizer. Tastes great and looks even better! Reading the reviews ahead of time it seems like a... bunch of people thought it might be good to wrap a piece of prosciutto. So I tried that. It was very good, although it was way too salty...I would recommend not using a full piece of prosciutto if you decide to try it. Read more

Quick, Easy and Tasty
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Once again, Paula has created a easy and tasty recipe that my family enjoyed! My mom, who has been battleing small cel lung... cancer since Aug 11, 2009 spends a lot of time in bed watching tv. One day she called to tell me about an asparagus dish she saw paula making on tv and how seeing paula make it made her want to cook again. This was last month. My parents came to visit on Thursday and were planning on staying until Saturday. This was mom's first mini vacay since the diagnoses and also the first stey-over other than in the hospital. I decided to make this dish with mom and it was a success...its cheap, easy and sooo good to make. Next time I will try and use less butter and add some garlic powder:-)Read more

What A Find!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this dish last night and I think I might have to make more this evening, lol. My boyfriend, who is hard to impress,... loved them. So much so that now he's trying to come with a dipping sauce for them. I don't think that they need any. But who knows, if it's good we'll try it, Thanks Paula!!!!!!!!!!!!!Read more
