Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb fresh green asparagus
5 large free-range eggs
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (Pimenton)
1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 pinch ground cumin
salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ounce butter

Steps:

  • Trim the woody ends from the asparagus, removing tough fibrous outer layers from the stalks if they are large - a potato peeler is good for this.
  • Cut the asparagus into 1" lengths - setting aside the tips.
  • Bring a pan of water to the boil and boil the asparagus for 2 to 4 minutes - excluding the tips; add the tips and boil for a further 2 minutes.
  • Drain carefully - the asparagus should be just tender but not too soft.
  • Beat the eggs with the spices and seasonings.
  • Warm the olive oil with the butter in a large roomy pan - over a moderate heat.
  • When the butter has melted and the oil is sizzling, add the beaten eggs.
  • Stir for 1 minute with a wooden spoon, then add the asparagus. Cook for a further 1 - 2 minutes, until the eggs are just set.
  • Serve at once, sprinkled with pimenton, crusty bread and side dishes of olives, almonds and choritzo.

THE BEST ROASTED ASPARAGUS



The Best Roasted Asparagus image

The perfect roasted asparagus should be lightly browned and tender, yet bright green and crisp. Roasting the spears at a high temperature helps achieve this. We also browned grated Parmesan to make a nutty, crumbly frico topping. Wait until ready to serve to top the vegetables so the crisped cheese stays crunchy.

Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound thin asparagus, trimmed
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Juice of 1/4 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack.
  • Put the asparagus, olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Toss to coat evenly. Spread the asparagus in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned and tender, but still bright green.
  • Meanwhile, spread the Parmesan evenly in the bottom of a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook undisturbed until the cheese melts, sticks together and turns golden brown, about 2 minutes, then flip with a rubber spatula and cook until golden on the second side, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the frico to a wire rack-lined baking sheet to cool completely, about 2 minutes. Break the frico into small crumbles and put in a small bowl. Add the lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the roasted asparagus to a serving platter and squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the top. Top with the crumbled frico mixture.
