Description

A frittata is a hybrid of a pie and an omelet. It is thoroughly fried until a brown crust forms.

Ingredients

Asparagus - 10.6 oz
Spanish onions - 2.5 oz
Chicken Egg - 4 pieces
Olive Oil - 2 spoons
Milk - 1 fl oz
Parmesan Cheese - 1.8 oz
Ground Black Pepper - to taste
Salt - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Slice the tips of the asparagus into rounds about five millimeters thick.

Step 2

Slice the white onion into half-moons.

Step 3

In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté the onion briefly, then add the asparagus. Stir and cook, stirring occasionally, for five to seven minutes, until the asparagus is tender.

Step 4

Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add grated Parmesan cheese, pour in the milk (or cream), season with salt, and whisk with a fork. Pour the mixture over the asparagus and let it sit for about seven to ten minutes.

Step 5

When the frittata is set, flip it onto a deep plate or an inverted lid (it's easier to slide it onto a curved surface) and return it to the skillet with the browned side facing up. Let it cook in the skillet for another three minutes.
