Ingredients for Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus with Truffle Butter

  • 450g medium asparagus (18 to 20)

  • 1/2 teaspoons white-truffle oil

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

  • 9 or 10 large thin slices prosciutto (150g)

How to make Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus with Truffle Butter

Prepare a large bowl of ice and cold water. Trim asparagus to 5 inches long, then steam in a steamer over boiling water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to cold water to stop cooking. Drain and pat dry. Season with salt.

Stir oil into butter until incorporated.

Cut prosciutto slices into roughly 3- by 3-inch pieces, then thinly coat with truffle butter and place an asparagus stalk at one edge. Roll up, leaving tip and end visible. Repeat with remaining asparagus and prosciutto.
