Wash the white asparagus, peel it and cut off the ends. Fry on the hot fire plate for about 10 minutes until tender and lightly browned. Meanwhile, prepare the hollandaise sauce. Heat the finely chopped shallot, the slightly crushed peppercorns and the white wine in a small saucepan. Simmer until the wine has reduced. Remove the reduced white wine mixture from the heat and add the egg yolks. Using a whisk, stir vigorously until creamy. Slowly stir in the butter, making sure it is completely melted and the sauce becomes smooth. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice and a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Keep warm. In a separate pan, fry the panko with the butter until golden brown to create a crispy pancocrunch. Just before the asparagus is ready, season with salt, pepper, lemon zest and chopped rosemary for extra flavour. Then toss the asparagus with the pancocrunch. Divide the fried asparagus between plates and serve with the warm hollandaise sauce.
