Ingredients

• 12 pieces asparagus spears
• 300 grams ground beef
• 2 cloves garlic
• 0.5 medium onion
• 50 grams breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash and trim the woody ends of the asparagus spears. Set them aside to dry.

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic and onion.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, minced garlic, minced onion, breadcrumbs, egg, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Step 4

Divide the meat mixture into 12 equal portions.

Step 5

Take one portion of the meat mixture and flatten it into a thin pattie. Place one asparagus spear in the center and carefully wrap the meat around it, leaving the tips of the asparagus exposed. Repeat with the remaining asparagus and meat portions.

Step 6

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 7

Place the wrapped asparagus meat seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side to brown the surface.

Step 8

Once all sides are browned, lower the heat, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 9

Remove from heat and let the wrapped asparagus meat rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as an appetizer or alongside a dipping sauce of your choice, if desired.
