Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- If the asparagus are thick, peel them halfway up the stalks. Cut off and discard the bottom third of the asparagus. Place the asparagus in a single layer on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, until the stalks are just tender. Meanwhile, place the prosciutto in a single layer on another sheet pan and roast in the same oven for 5 minutes.
- Melt the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat and wait until the bubbles almost subside. Crack the eggs into the skillet, keeping them separate, if possible. Sprinkle the eggs generously with salt and pepper and cook over medium heat until the whites are cooked but the yolks are still runny. Don't turn them over!
- Arrange the asparagus on 3 plates. Place 2 slices of prosciutto on top of each pile, drizzle with hollandaise, and place a fried egg on top of the prosciutto. Serve hot.
- Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in the jar of a blender and process on low for 15 seconds. Melt the butter in a small saucepan until it is sizzling hot. Remove the small clear insert in the top of the blender. With the blender on low, slowly add the hot butter to the egg and lemon mixture and blend for 30 seconds, until the sauce is very thick. Use immediately.

Tips:
- Choose thick asparagus spears: Thicker asparagus spears will hold up better to roasting and will be less likely to overcook.
- Trim the asparagus properly: Asparagus should be trimmed about 1 inch from the bottom, where the spears are woody and tough.
- Roast the asparagus at a high temperature: Roasting the asparagus at a high temperature will help to caramelize the sugars in the asparagus and give it a delicious flavor.
- Add plenty of olive oil: Olive oil will help to prevent the asparagus from sticking to the pan and will also help to flavor the asparagus.
- Season the asparagus with salt and pepper: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for roasted asparagus. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Roast the asparagus until it is tender-crisp: Asparagus should be roasted until it is tender-crisp, but not overcooked. Overcooked asparagus will be mushy and will lose its flavor.
- Serve the asparagus immediately: Roasted asparagus is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Roasted Parmesan Asparagus with Poached Eggs and Prosciutto is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a brunch or lunch. The asparagus is roasted until tender-crisp and then topped with poached eggs, prosciutto, and Parmesan cheese. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to enjoy fresh asparagus.
