  2. Dip asparagus in beaten egg.

  3. Roll and coat asparagus in a layer of breadcrumbs.

  4. Place coated asparagus on a plate and refrigerate, allowing coating to stick, 15 to 20 minutes.

  5. Stir mayonnaise, green chilies, and hot pepper sauce together in a small bowl for dipping sauce.

  6. Heat vegetable oil in a fry pan over medium heat.

  7. Fry coated asparagus in the hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.

Recipe Note

Breaded asparagus is fried in oil then served with a green chili mayonnaise dipping sauce. A big hit at any dinner party where I have served this.
