FRESH ASPARAGUS ROLLS WITH CAERPHILLY CHEESE

asparagus rolls

Method

  • Preheat oven to 200C Break off tough ends of the asparagus leaving just the tender tips
  • Steam for 2-4 minutes until tender
  • Remove the crusts from the bread
  • Place one slice down on your work bench and place one spear of asparagus across on the diagonal, sprinkle some cheese and a little seasoning, roll up and place the end of the bread under the asparagus roll, as this will stop it unfurling
  • Continue until all the asparagus is used up and then place the rolls onto a baking tray and cook in the top half of the oven and bake until the bread has gone golden and toast like and the cheese is starting to ooze out from the ends
  • Serve immediately with a little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil or even a spread of butter

Comments

This is a bit of twist on a classic, however these are baked till golden and the cheese has melted.
