How to make asparagus rolls with herb butter sauce

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Cut the filo sheets in half.

  • Lay the rolls on a greased baking sheet.
  • Brush with the remaining melted butter.
  • Bake in the oven for 8 minutes until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, put the shallots, bay leaf and wine into a pan.
  • Cover, and cook over a high heat until the wine is reduced to 3 to 4 tablespoons.
  • Strain the wine mixture into a bowl.
  • Whisk in the butter, a bowl. Whisk in the butter, a little at a time until the sauce is smooth and glossy.
  • Stir in the herbs and add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Return to the pan and keep the sauce warm.
  • Serve the rolls on individual plates with a salad garnish, if desired.
  • Serve the sauce separately, sprinkled with a scattering of chopped chives
