Cut the hard ends of the asparagus, and then wash the asparagus and pat it dry.
Add the egg and water to a mixing bowl. Whisk them together, and then add the asparagus, tossing it around so it is coated evenly.
Add the breadcrumbs (the regular and the panko) and spices to another bowl. Place the asparagus pieces inside and toss them around until evenly coated.
Transfer the fries to the air fryer basket, and spray them with cooking oil (I use olive oil). Air fry at 400F for 7-8 minutes. I recommend flipping them over halfway through cooking.
Remove the fries from the air fryer and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
