Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings as a light lun

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 pound thin pencil asparagus, blanched in boiling water, chilled and diced
1/4 cup assorted fresh chopped herbs: thyme, chives, chervil, etc.
Salt and pepper
12 large eggs, shelled and beaten with a wire whisk
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup Parmesan, grated
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced

  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In large bowl combine beaten eggs with the milk and Parmesan. Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan, until the butter is frothy. Add the onion and cook until the onion is translucent and golden, being careful not to burn them. Using a large wooden spatula, stir in the eggs and turn the heat down to very low. Stir the eggs to form a large flat omelet shape, fully covering the bottom of the pan. When the eggs begin to cook and take shape, stir in the diced asparagus and the herbs. Place the whole saute pan into the oven and continue to cook for 2 more minutes until the frittata is cooked around the edges and the center has puffed up.
  • Remove immediately form the oven. Invert the frittata onto a large platter and serve immediately.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS FRITTATA



Roasted Asparagus Frittata image

Asparagus begs to be roasted; this recipe was developed after roasting a couple pounds and using them in a bunch of different dishes over a few days. This was the favorite, and frankly, the uber-favorite was this in a sandwich. More spring recipes.

Categories     for two, quick, roasts, vegetables, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 to 12 medium to fat asparagus spears, trimmed
Olive oil
Salt and black pepper
4 eggs
1/4 to 1/2 cup chervil, roughly chopped, or parsley
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan, optional

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spread asparagus on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast, shaking the pan occasionally, until the asparagus is lightly charred and tender, about 12 minutes. (You can let the asparagus sit at room temperature for hours, or refrigerate overnight.)
  • Beat the eggs with salt, pepper, half the chervil (and half the cheese, if you like). Cut the asparagus into 2-inch lengths and arrange in a single layer in a 10-inch nonstick skillet. Drizzle with more olive oil and set over medium heat.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus. Use a spatula if necessary to make a round frittata. Cook until nearly set, tilting the pan and lifting the edge of the set egg to let the liquid egg flow underneath, about 4 minutes.
  • When the top is almost dry, flip the frittata onto a plate, then slide it back into the pan. Let cook for just a few seconds, then flip out onto a plate. Alternatively, use an ovenproof pan and put it in the oven or under the broiler for a few minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the remaining chervil (and cheese if you are using it) and serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
