Best Asparagus Fries With Sour Cream And Chive Dip Recipes

ASPARAGUS FRIES

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.

ASPARAGUS DIP

Steps:

• Place the drained asparagus, cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and chilli sauce in a food processor and process until smooth.
• Spoon the dip into a serving bowl and serve with savoury biscuits.

ASPARAGUS FRIES WITH SMOKY CHIPOTLE MAYONNAISE DIPPING SAUCE

• Heat about 1 inch of oil heat to 370 F in a frying pan, put in asparagus but don't crowd.
• Turn to brown on all sides.
• Drop some dip into the bottom of a champagne flute, add 3-5 asparagus and serve.

• Combine remaining ingredients, except bread crumbs.
• Combine sauce with asparagus and spread into a baking dish.
• Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top- enough to thoroughly dust the surface.
• Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 400F oven about 15 minutes or until cooked through.

ASPARAGUS FRIES WITH SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE DIP

Steps:

• For the sour cream and chive dip: Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, chives, garlic, lemon zest and juice and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. You can make this up to 2 days before as it gets better tasting with time.
• For the asparagus tempura: Fill a 9- to 11-inch saucepan, large pot or large Dutch oven with about 4 inches of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 to 360 degrees F. Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
• Whisk the flour, cornstarch and baking soda together in a large bowl. Transfer half of the of the flour mixture to a second large bowl. Keep the club soda nearby, but don't make the batter until you're ready to fry.
• Create an assembly line from left to right: the asparagus, one bowl of flour mixture for dredging and the second bowl of flour mixture that will become your tempura batter.
• When you're ready to fry, stir the club soda into the second bowl of flour.
• To fry, use your fingers to dip 2 to 3 asparagus spears into the dredging flour, shake off the excess, then dip in the batter. Lay or slide the coated asparagus into the hot oil and deep-fry until golden, about 3 minutes, turning it in the oil for even cooking. Lift the cooked asparagus with tongs or a spider and let excess oil drip back into the pan before transferring to the prepared wire rack. Skim the surface of the oil occasionally to keep it clean and to fish out stray crispy tempura bits.
• Bring the oil back to 350 to 360 degrees F between batches. Stir the batter to keep it from separating, then repeat with the remaining asparagus. Serve the fries immediately with the dip.
