Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 lb thin asparagus, trimmed
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 lb mushroom, sliced
4 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons milk
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon dried basil, crushed or 1 teaspoon minced fresh basil (fresh preferred)
1 dash freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut trimmed asparagus in 1 inch pieces; cook in boiling salted water until tender, about 4 minutes.
  • Drain thoroughly.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in 8 inch skillet, preferably one with non-stick lining, and saute garlic and mushrooms until done and moisture has evaporated.
  • Remove from pan and keep warm.
  • In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt, basil, and pepper.
  • Melt remaining butter in skillet until foamy, swirling it around pan to coat evenly.
  • When hot enough that a drop of water sizzles when dropped in, pour in egg mixture.
  • Tip pan so eggs coat skillet evenly.
  • As eggs cook, periodically lift up cooked edges, tilt pan and let uncooked egg run underneath.
  • When eggs are cooked, but surface is still shiny, place asparagus and mushrooms on one side; slide out of pan, folding side without vegetables over top.
  • Serve immediately.
  • Also good sprinkled with a bit of grated Parmesan.
