How to Make Asparagus Ricotta Strudel Vegetarian Or Not Your Choice
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, 1/4 cup chopped ham (optional), 1/2 cup roasted red peppers (chopped), 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, 1 egg white, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Set aside.
- Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound asparagus spears.
- Cut asparagus into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Cook asparagus in a small saucepan with 1/2 cup of water, covered, for 5 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
- Drain asparagus and immediately rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Set aside to cool.
- Gently stir the cooled asparagus into the ricotta mixture.
- Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean, dry kitchen towel. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
- Top with another sheet of phyllo, spray with cooking spray, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of bread crumbs.
- Repeat layers until you have used 4-6 sheets of phyllo, ending with a sprayed top layer.
- Spoon the cheese and asparagus mixture lengthwise onto half of the top phyllo layer, leaving a 1 1/2-inch border on all sides.
- Fold in the short sides of the phyllo over the filling.
- Starting from the longest side, tightly roll up the strudel, jelly-roll style.
- Lightly spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Place the strudel, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Spray lightly with cooking spray.
- Using a sharp knife, score the strudel into 12 slices, cutting through only the top layer.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Slice and serve with fresh fruit.
