How to cook deliciously - Deep-Fried Parmesan Asparagus Fries

1. Stage

Mix together flour, paprika, garlic powder, baking powder, and salt in one bowl, eggs and buttermilk in another, and bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a third.

2. Stage

Coat each asparagus stalk in the flour blend, dunk into the egg mixture, then roll in the bread crumbs. Transfer to the refrigerator and let them rest for 30 minutes; this will help the breading stick during frying.

3. Stage

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

4. Stage

Fry asparagus in the hot oil, working in batches as needed, until breading is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Serve hot.
