  2. Blitz the bread, flat leaf parsley, grated Parmesan and the garlic in a food processor until you have a fine crumb
  3. Cut the filo sheets into quarters and cover with a damp cloth, so they don’t dry out
  4. Brush one piece with some butter and scatter over a thin, even layer of the crumb mixture
  5. Position an asparagus spear at an angle on the bottom corner of the filo square and roll it up
  6. Transfer to a baking sheet and brush with a little more of the butter
