HAM ASPARAGUS ITALIAN CHEESE OMELETTE image

This is a quick, easy and very delicious springtime omelette, filled with gooey melted mozzarella, ham and asparagus. The black truffle sea salt adds a wonderful layer of flavor (I highly recommend that you not leave it out.)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 tablespoon(s) salted butter
2 stalk(s) fresh asparagus, chopped small
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 small pinch(es) fine pink himalayan salt
1 small pinch(es) black truffle sea salt (or wild porcini sea salt)
1 slice(s) ham lunchmeat, minced or chopped small
1 1/2 tablespoon(s) shredded italian cheese blend
1 - 1 oz. slice(s) whole milk mozzarella cheese
1/2 - 1 teaspoon(s) fresh chives

Steps:

  • Gather and prep all ingredients (wash, dry and chop asparagus, beat eggs, mince ham, etc...)
  • Melt butter in small nonstick skillet over medium heat; add chopped asparagus; sauté for 1 to 2 minutes, until tender.
  • Mix salts into beaten eggs; pour into the skillet; evenly rearrange asparagus pieces in skillet. Cook over medium heat for one to two minutes, until eggs begin to firm on the bottom.
  • Evenly sprinkle minced ham over eggs; cook and gently swirl the egg mixture around edge of pan, lifting edge of omelette to allow uncooked egg to come in contact with skillet and finish cooking, if necessary.
  • When eggs are almost completely firm, evenly sprinkle one tablespoon of shredded Italian cheese blend over all; place mozzarella slice on one side.
  • Use a spatula to fold omelette in half. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 tablespoon Italian cheese blend and chives.
  • Serve immediately.
