Instructions

  1. Wash and peel the asparagus, cut off the ends. Cook with salt, sugar and 1 tablespoon butter until al dente. Preheat the oven to 220 ° C.
  2. Put the asparagus in a buttered ovenproof dish. Drain the mozzarella and cut into 16 slices, season with pepper and cover each with a leaf of basil. Halve the ham slices and wrap them around the mozzarella slices. Place ham and mozzarella parcels on top of the asparagus in the baking dish. Gratinate the casserole in the oven on the middle rack for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
  3. In the meantime, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Chop the rest of the basil and add. Brown the sauce, season with pepper and salt, then season with white wine. Pour the sauce over the casserole.
  4. Baguette bread goes well with it.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
