Ham Asparagus Swirls.

This is a recipe I wrote
I had these ingredients on hand and put it together. It is a fabulous
appetizer and one I serve at a lot of my catering events.

16 fresh asparagus spears trimmed
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
16 thin slices smoked ham
16 slices Swiss cheese
2 eggs beaten
1 cup Italian dry bread crumbs
3 tablespoons olive oil

In a skillet cook asparagus in a small amount of water until crisp tender
and drain well. Spread about 1 teaspoon of mustard on each ham slice. Top
with one slice of cheese. Place an asparagus spear at one end. Roll up
each ham sliced tightly, secure with three toothpicks. Dip ham roll in egg
then roll in breadcrumbs. Fry rolls in oil a few at a time, until golden
brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels; keep warm. Cut each
roll between the toothpicks into three pieces.
