Asparagus recipe bothers me -- opinions?

My asparagus tag today had a recipe on it. Cool I thought...until I read it.
"1 lb fresh asparagus, cooked
1 TBSP cold water
1/2 c fine dried bread crumbs
1/4c Parm cheese
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
1 Egg
Beat egg and mix w/ cold water. Mix crumbs, salt, cheese, and paprika. Dip asparagus in crumb mixture, then in egg mixture again. Chill 1 hour. FRY IN HOT FAT UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN. "
ARGH!!! Why would you take something so healthy and then FRY IT IN HOT FAT. And the instructions are verbatim from the tag. They actually said to FRY IN HOT FAT, not even saute in oil, or fry in oil, but HOT FAT. Ugh.



I agree....that's pretty bad.
