1/4 cup assorted fresh chopped herbs: thyme, chives, chervil, etc.
Salt and pepper
12 large eggs, shelled and beaten with a wire whisk

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.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 bunch thin asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
4 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup crumbled feta

Steps:

Preheat the broiler. Melt the butter in a 9-inch cast-iron frying pan. Add the onions and saute until they are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook until just softened, 2 minutes.
Whisk together the eggs, cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the feta. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus mixture and cook until almost set, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler and cook until golden brown on top, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
