Comments from the Test Kitchen:
Try this recipe the next time you are looking for an impressive side dish. It's a lovely way to serve asparagus, tucked away inside a scrumptious pastry.
 

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 400. Saute the onions in 2 tablespoons of the butter for 10 minutes, until soft but not browned.
2
In another pan, heat 4 tablespoons of the butter and saute the crumbs until crisp.
3
Melt the remaining butter in a small saucepan. Spread one phyllo pastry sheet out on a large board and brush with butter. Put another pastry sheet on top and brush with more butter. Repeat until all sheets have been used.
4
Spread the onions evenly on top of the pastry, keeping the edges clear.
5
Put the asparagus over the top of the onions and sprinkle with three-quarters of the crumbs and the parsley.
6
Fold over 2 inches all around the pastry, then fold the long edges over to make a roll. Place the roll, seam side down, on a baking sheet and bend it around into a horseshoe shape.
7
Brush with remaining melted butter and sprinkle with the remaining crumbs. Bake 40 minutes or until golden.
8
Garnish with parsley sprigs, lemon slices and asparagus tips.
9
Combine yogurt and herb dressing ingredients and serve with strudel.

This looks and sounds wonderful-I'm going to try it the next time I splurge on asparagus...I would only add-be sure to keep the Phyllo sheets under a damp towel or they'll dry out very very quickly(it only takes like 30 seconds)...

Am I reading something wrong? I use the two Tbs.butter for the onions, then use the 1/4 cup (4Tbs.) for the bread crumbs and it says to use remaining butter for the pastry. I have none left for the pastry.
