Asparagus Cocktail

Ingredients

  • 400 gr asparagus
  • 1 shallot
  • 150 ml mayonnaise
  • 150 ml sour cream
  • 2 hardboiled eggs
  • lemon juice
  • salt, pepper
  • cognac
  • parsley
  • 100 gr boiled ham
  • Worcester sauce

Directions

Boil the asparagus. Cut into small pieces. Slice the ham into julienne strips. Peel the shallot and chop very finely. Chop some parsley fine. Mix 3/4 of the ham with the asparagus.

Stir the mayonnaise and sour cream together and blend in the shallot, chopped parsley and a little lemon juice. Season the sauce with salt, pepper, Worcester sauce and a dash of brandy. Put the asparagus & ham mixture into cocktail glasses, pour a little sauce over and decorate the cocktail with the rest of the ham and a couple of reserved asparagus tips.

Cut the hardboiled eggs into 6 segments. Place 3 segments on each cocktail and finally sprinkle with a little more parsley. Serve with a fresh baguette.
