Brie, Asparagus & Prosciutto Bundles
This recipe brings together rich Brie cheese, tender asparagus, and salty prosciutto, all wrapped in a delicate bundle that’s as delicious as it is beautiful.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces of Brie cheese, cut into slices
- 20 asparagus spears, trimmed
- 10 slices of prosciutto
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Puff pastry sheets (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Blanch the asparagus spears in boiling water for about 2 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain them and place them in ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, pat them dry with a paper towel.
- On a clean surface, lay out the puff pastry sheets. If they are frozen, make sure to thaw them according to package instructions.
- Cut each puff pastry sheet into squares large enough to hold the cheese and asparagus.
- Take a slice of prosciutto and lay it on the pastry square. Place a slice of Brie cheese on top of the prosciutto, followed by one or two asparagus spears.
- Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to create a bundle. Press them gently to seal. You can use a little water to help them stick if necessary.
- Brush the tops of the bundles with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper for extra flavor.
- Transfer the bundles to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these scrumptious bundles warm and watch them disappear!
