Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat.

Prepare the asparagus by breaking off any tough bottom sections, rinse well and add to the boiling water for 2 minutes.

Roll the cheesed asparagus into the bread crumbs until well coated.

Carefully add the asparagus, in batches, to the oil and fry until golden brown about 2 to 3 minutes.
