Cook Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tbsp Borsari Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 tsp Borsari Citrus Seasoning
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan or Gruyère cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Heat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Asparagus: Rinse and trim tough ends. Pat dry and toss with olive oil and Borsari Citrus Seasoning.
- Cut the Puff Pastry: Roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 6 equal rectangles.
- Assemble the Bundles: Place 3 to 4 asparagus spears in the center of each rectangle. Sprinkle with cheese if desired. Fold pastry over the asparagus, sealing edges gently.
- Brush with Egg Wash: Place bundles seam-side down on baking sheet. Brush tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake: Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until pastry is puffed and golden brown.
- Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving warm.
Pro Tips
- For extra crunch, sprinkle sesame seeds or everything bagel seasoning over the egg wash before baking.
- These bundles are best served fresh from the oven, but they can be reheated at 350°F for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Swap Parmesan for Gruyère or goat cheese for a gourmet twist.
