Steam peeled asparagus in salted water until al dente. Halve ham slices. Wrap each 2 asparagus spears with a slice of ham, then place the rolls next to each other in a greased baking dish. Whisk the coffee cream and egg well, season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg, if desired. Mix in 1 tablespoon of grated cheese and pour over the asparagus. Slice the tomatoes and top with the asparagus.
