Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
16 medium-size asparagus spears
8 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
1/3 cup butter, melted
Salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese (2 ounces)
Directions
1. If you like, scrape scales from asparagus spears. Trim off tough ends. Cook asparagus, covered, in boiling salted water for 5 to 7 minutes or until the asparagus is bright-green and crisp-tender. Immediately drain the asparagus and place in ice water. Drain asparagus; dry on paper towels.
2. Meanwhile, unfold phyllo dough. Place one sheet of phyllo on a work surface. Brush with some of the melted butter. Repeat 3 more times. (Cover remaining phyllo with a damp cloth to prevent drying.)
3. Place 2 asparagus spears along one short end of phyllo about 4 inches from the short end of the dough, placing tip to stalk at the center. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon each of the walnuts and Gruyere cheese over the asparagus.
4. Fold the phyllo dough over the stalks and repeat arranging asparagus, walnuts, and cheese, then folding until there are 8 stalks of asparagus total. Press edges to seal. If necessary, cut off any excess phyllo at ends of roll. (Roll should measure about 11-1/2x3-1/2 inches). Brush strudel with melted butter. Repeat for one more strudel. Place strudels, seam sides down, on a large baking sheet. Cut each strudel with a sharp knife into 6 pieces.
5. Bake strudels in a 400 degree F oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. If you like, garnish with crisp-cooked asparagus spears and champagne grapes.
Makes 6 appetizer servings.
