DIRECTIONS:

Fill a large, high sided skillet with salted water and bring to a boil. Add
the asparagus and cook until barely tender, about 10 minutes. Drain in a
colander, refresh under cold water and drain again. Pat dry and spread on a
platter.

In a small saucepan, melt 3 Tbsp of the butter. Drizzle it over the
asparagus. Wrap 1 piece of prosciutto around the middle of 1 thick or 2
thin asparagus stalks.

Place the flour on a plate. Beat the eggs in a wide shallow bowl. Roll one
of the asparagus bundles in the flour, then dip in the egg and return to
the platter. Repeat with the remaining bundles.

In a large skillet, heat the remaining 3 Tbsp butter and the oil over
moderate heat. Working in batches, add the asparagus bundles and fry,
turning once, until golden, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels; serve
at once.
