1 bunch of fresh asparagus, trimmed
6 slices of prosciutto
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Optional: shaved Parmesan or lemon zest for garnish
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Spread asparagus on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat and season with salt and pepper.
Wrap a few asparagus spears in each prosciutto slice and arrange on the sheet.
Roast for 10–12 minutes until asparagus is tender and prosciutto is crisp.
Carefully crack eggs over the asparagus bundles and return to oven for 5–7 minutes or until whites are set.
Serve hot, garnished with optional Parmesan or lemon zest.
For runnier yolks, reduce egg roasting time to 4–5 minutes.
Use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
