Fried Asparagus

2 Pounds asparagus spears
1 1/2 Cups grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 Cups fresh bread crumbs
2 Eggs, beaten
1/2 Teaspoons salt
1/8 Teaspoons hot pepper sauce
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 Tablespoons Grated Parmesan cheese

Cook the asparagus in a small amount of water until crisp-tender, drain well.
Combine the cheese and the breadcrumbs on a plate.
In a shallow bowl, stir together eggs, salt and pepper sauce.
Dip each asparagus spear in egg mixture and roll in crumbs to coat well.
Chill 20 minutes.
In a skillet, heat butter and oil on medium-high heat. Brown the spears in a single layer, turning carefully.
Remove and keep warm while browning the remaining spears. Serve with additional Parmesan cheese.
