Stockton Asparagus Fries Recipes

Steps:

• For the seasoning: Stir desired seasoning combination in a large bowl until well mixed.; set aside.
• For the asparagus fries: Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 360 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl until well combined; set aside.
• Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Slowly pour in the lager and whisk until smooth. Dip half of the asparagus pieces into the batter, turning to coat completely and letting any excess drip off. Carefully add a few of the asparagus pieces at a time to the hot oil until all the battered pieces are added, then fry until golden brown on all sides and crisp-tender on the inside, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining asparagus pieces and batter, making sure to bring the oil back to 360 degrees F for the second batch.
• Toss the warm fries in the bowl with the seasoning combination and serve with the lemon aioli.

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine egg and honey in a long, narrow dish and beat together. Combine panko and Parmesan cheese in a separate plate. Coat each asparagus stalk in egg mixture and roll in panko mix to coat.
• Place 6 spears in the air fryer and cook to desired brownness, 4 to 6 minutes. Repeat with remaining spears.
• Combine mustard, yogurt, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Serve dipping sauce alongside asparagus spears.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Cut off about 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) of asparagus ends. Set aside.
• In a large bowl combine crushed almonds, parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl or dish.
• Dip asparagus in eggs, coating evenly, and then toss with the crushed almond mixture.
• Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
• Prepare dip while fries are baking. Combine all dip ingredients in a small bowl and set aside in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Separate one of the three eggs for the asparagus. Put the white in a bowl with the remaining two eggs, beat with a fork and set aside until needed. Now, make the baconnaise. Chop the bacon as finely as possible. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the bacon and stir over a low heat for 15 mins, so it ends up sizzling in its own fat and becomes brown and crisp. Sit a metal sieve over a jug and tip the bacon into the sieve - you need about 200ml of fat in total, so top up the bacon fat with extra oil as necessary. Leave to cool for 10 mins.
• Tip the egg, egg yolk and mustard into a bowl, whisk to combine, then slowly add the bacon fat and oil mixture - first a drop at a time, then gradually quicker when it starts to come together. (You can also make this in a mini chopper, by blitzing the egg and mustard then slowly adding the oil with the blade running.) Once you have a thick mayonnaise, add the vinegar and chopped bacon, and season to taste. Can be made up to three days ahead and kept in the fridge.
• For the asparagus, snap off or trim the woody ends (save for making stock or soup). Get out three shallow dishes and tip the flour into one, the reserved beaten eggs into another, and the parmesan and breadcrumbs into the third. Dip the asparagus in the flour, then the egg, then the cheesy breadcrumbs, and put on a plate. Can be prepared the day before, covered and kept in the fridge.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/ gas 7. Drizzle the oil over a baking tray (a sturdy Swiss roll tin is ideal) and heat in the oven. Once the oil is hot, carefully lay the asparagus spears in it, then turn them. Make sure they are in one layer, then roast for 20 mins, turning halfway through, until the crumbs have browned to a crisp coating. Leave until just cool enough to pick up, then serve with the baconnaise for dipping.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/390°F.
• Snap the top off of the asparagus spears.
• Crack the egg into a bowl then whisk.
• Coat the asparagus in egg, then the ground almonds and place on a baking tray covered in parchment paper.
• Sprinkle the mixed herbs and ground garlic on top then squeeze the lemon juice over them.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes turning half way through.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Whisk milk and eggs together in a bowl.
• Stir biscuit mix, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper together in a separate bowl.
• Dip asparagus into milk mixture.
• Roll and coat asparagus in dry ingredient mixture. Repeat with a second layer for each asparagus.
• Carefully place coated asparagus in the hot oil; fry until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix together flour, paprika, garlic powder, baking powder, and salt in one bowl, eggs and buttermilk in another, and bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a third.
• Coat each asparagus stalk in the flour blend, dunk into the egg mixture, then roll in the bread crumbs. Transfer to the refrigerator and let them rest for 30 minutes; this will help the breading stick during frying.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Fry asparagus in the hot oil, working in batches as needed, until breading is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Serve hot.
