Recipe
Preheat oven to 180ºC.
Cut bacon strips into 3-inch lengths. Trim off any excess bacon if necessary to make rolling easier and more uniform.
Cut asparagus into 2- or 3-inch pieces. (Snap off woody ends of stalks if necessary.)
Lay out bacon strips. Place asparagus spears on one end of the bacon, ensuring spears peek out from each side. Sprinkle a little Pecorino cheese on asparagus. Roll. Repeat with remaining asparagus and bacon.
Roll bacon-wrapped asparagus in more Pecorino cheese. Place rolls on a baking tray. Bake for 20 minutes or until bacon is cooked, but don’t over bake asparagus!
Remove from oven. Place rolls on paper towels to drain excess bacon fat. Serve immediately.
