Asparagus:
10 spears Asparagus 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese 1 egg white Clean and prepare asparagus spears. Combine bread crumbs and parmesan. Separate egg reserving yolk for sauce. Dip spears in egg white and coat with crumbs. Fry over medium heat until golden brown
Pasta:
6 oz. Fettuccini noodles Cook pasta according to directions on package being careful not to overcook. Drain.
Sauce:
4 oz. Neufchatel Cheese 1 cup Light Sour Cream 2 cloves crushed Garlic 1cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 egg yolk Milk Combine Neufchatel and sour cream over medium low heat until smooth. Add garlic. Heat almost to boiling point but do not boil. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until cheese is completely melted. Add milk until desired consistency is achieved. Too thin, it runs all over the plate. Too thick, it sits on top of the pasta like a pile of glop. Remove from heat and add egg yolk. Stir until smooth.
Serve:
Place pasta on plate, cover with sauce. Arrange asparagus spears atop pasta bed. Add a bit more sauce. Serves two.
