ROASTED ASPARAGUS WRAPPED IN SERRANO HAM



Roasted Asparagus Wrapped in Serrano Ham image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Canola oil spray
1 pound thinly sliced serrano ham (about 24 slices)
1 pound asparagus, stalks trimmed to equal lengths
1 tablespoon orange zest and 2 tablespoons juice
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease a baking sheet with canola oil spray.
  • Lay a slice of ham on a work surface. Place a stalk of asparagus perpendicular to the ham, with the tip of the asparagus just higher than the top edge of the ham. Roll the asparagus on a diagonal, tightly wrapping the ham around the stalk as you go. (The ham should cover the entire stalk except for about an inch on the top and bottom ends.) Repeat with the remaining asparagus and ham.
  • Place the asparagus, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet and lightly grease the tops with canola oil spray. Bake until the ham is crispy and the asparagus has softened and begun to char at the tips, about 15 minutes. Immediately pour the orange juice over the hot asparagus and season with salt. (The orange juice will almost completely evaporate on the hot baking sheet, but it will infuse the asparagus with orange flavor.)
  • Transfer the asparagus to a serving plate and garnish with the orange zest. Serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS, HAM, AND POACHED EGG SALAD



Asparagus, Ham, and Poached Egg Salad image

On an afternoon in May, a favorite Provençal bistro served us this utterly delicious and totally beautiful spring salad of blanched asparagus, a perfect poached egg draped with a shiny, fragrant slice of ham from the French Basque region, and a tangle of soft greens.

Provided by Patricia Wells

Categories     HarperCollins     Salad     Asparagus     Ham     Egg     Chive     Lettuce     Poach     Lunch     Brunch     Spring

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons coarse sea salt
16 green asparagus spears (1 pound), trimmed
4 ultra-fresh large eggs
1 tablespoon distilled vinegar
4 cups torn soft greens, such as buttercrunch lettuce
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
Lemon and Olive Oil Dressing
4 thin slices top-quality ham
Fine sea salt
Coarse, freshly ground black pepper
Toast, for serving
Special Equipment
5-quart pasta pot fitted with a colander; 4 ramekins or small cups ; a flat, fine-mesh sieve or a large slotted spoon

Steps:

  • Prepare a large bowl of ice water.
  • Fill the pasta pot with 3 quarts of water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the coarse salt and the asparagus. Blanch, uncovered, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. (Cooking time will vary according to the size and tenderness of the asparagus.) Immediately remove the colander from the water, letting the water drain from the asparagus. Plunge the asparagus into the ice water so they cool down as quickly as possible and retain their crispness and bright green color. (The asparagus will cool in 1 to 2 minutes. After that, they will soften and begin to lose crispness and flavor.) Drain the asparagus and wrap it in a thick kitchen towel to dry. (Do not cook the asparagus in advance or it will lose its crispness.)
  • Break each egg into a ramekin or small cup. Set aside. In a large, shallow saucepan, bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Add the vinegar. One by one, bring the edge of a ramekin or cup level with the surface of the water and slide the egg in gently. Turn off the heat and cover the pan. Poach the eggs until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny and are covered with a thin, translucent layer of white, about 3 minutes.
  • With the sieve or slotted spoon, carefully lift the eggs from the water and transfer them to several thicknesses of paper towels.
  • Place the salad greens and chives in a large salad bowl. Toss with just enough dressing to coat the greens lightly and evenly.
  • Place the asparagus on a large plate and add just enough dressing to lightly coat the spears. Roll the asparagus in the dressing.
  • Arrange the dressed greens at one side of each of 4 large dinner plates. (Rectangular plates are particularly beautiful here.) Carefully place a poached egg alongside. Arrange 4 asparagus spears next to the eggs. Carefully drape a slice of ham over each of the poached eggs. Season the greens lightly with fine sea salt and generously with pepper. Sprinkle with chives. Serve with the toast.

SPRING ASPARAGUS, HAM AND POTATO SALAD - HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING



Spring Asparagus, Ham and Potato Salad - Honey Mustard Dressing image

A light, fresh and very tasty potato salad, which is more of a meal than a side dish! I made this up when I had a few spears of fresh asparagus left, some boiled potatoes and some honey roast ham in the fridge! This recipe/idea is for two people - but it can be increased with ease, hence my listing of the ingredients in numbers, rather than in ounces or grammes! The dressing can be made ahead......and, hopefully it will be warm enough to sit outside and soak up the spring or early summer sun......c'est Parfait!
