Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh asparagus spears that are about the same thickness. Thicker spears may need to be trimmed to fit the phyllo pastry.
  • If you don't have any Boursin cheese, you can use another soft cheese, such as goat cheese or cream cheese.
  • To make the phyllo pastry easier to work with, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before using.
  • Be careful not to overcook the asparagus. It should be tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Serve the asparagus immediately after cooking, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Phyllo-wrapped asparagus and Boursin is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. It is perfect for any occasion, from casual get-togethers to formal dinner parties. The combination of asparagus, Boursin cheese, and phyllo pastry is sure to please everyone at your table.
