Directions
Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle the olive oil over the Asparagus Spears. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine.
Cut the puff pastry into ½ inch thick strips. Bunch 2 asparagus spears together and wrap a strip of puff pastry around the length of the spears, leaving space in between. Place the wrapped asparagus bunches onto the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the pastry with the beaten egg. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese on top. Bake it in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the pastry is golden brown.
In a small bowl combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, dill, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve the asparagus pastries with the prepared dipping sauce.
