Hello, dear reader! Today, I want to share with you a dish that has become a personal favorite of mine - Asparagus Fritti. It's a delightful blend of crispy and tender textures, capturing all its enticing flavors in a unique and visually appealing presentation.
Prepare tempura batter by whisking ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
Prepare seasoned flour by combining ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Dredge medium-sized asparagus spears through the flour.
Remove spears from flour, shaking off excess, and sink into tempura batter.
With the fryer basket in the oil, momentarily float the individual spears in the oil to cook the batter enough to prevent it from sticking to the fryer baskets.
When the batter is cooked to a golden brown, remove fried asparagus and allow oil to drain.
Sprinkle with shaved Parmesan and serve with your favorite marinara sauce.

Notes
When making Asparagus Fritti, selecting fresh asparagus is crucial. Look for vibrant green stalks with firm and tender tips. The freshness of the asparagus will ensure a vibrant color and a delightful crunch after frying.
