Description
Do you find meatballs, cheese skewers and small bites of bread on the buffet boring? Then why not try a different take on classic asparagus and ham rolls? In this recipe, we refine them with a hint of wild garlic and coat them in a breading similar to that used for schnitzels. Simply modify the classic a little and create a new, great flavour experience - that's the motto here!

Prepare the asparagus ham rolls

1
Wash and peel the asparagus and cut off the woody ends. Make an asparagus stock from the asparagus skin, the woody ends, butter, lemon juice, salt, sugar and water.
2
Blanch the asparagus spears in the finished asparagus stock for about 5-10 minutes until they are cooked. Then drain on a kitchen towel or similar.
3
Halve the slices of cooked ham and finely chop the wild garlic.
4
Roll each asparagus spear together with some wild garlic in half a slice of ham.
5
Dip the asparagus and ham rolls first in wheat flour, then in beaten egg and finally in breadcrumbs.
6
Heat the oil in a pan (or deep-fry in a pan) and fry the breaded asparagus rolls on all sides until golden brown.
7
Eat them warm straight away or prepare them for a buffet, for example. Serve with a creamy dip.
