Description

 

Asparagus Fritatta

This is an easy and satisfying dish for a spring brunch when asparagus is in season. Use fresh asparagus when you can.

This recipe uses Roasted Asparagus, which can be freshly-roasted and hot or it can be at room temperature when you use it.

Yield
4 Servings
Preparation time
15 minutes
Ingredients
8 Eggs
4 oz Roasted Asparagus
4 oz Gruyere Cheese (sliced thin or grated)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the broiler.
  2. Butter a pie plate. If you like, coat it with savory breadcrumbs.
  3. Whip the eggs, and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Scramble 3/4 the whipped eggs in a buttered skillet, then spread the scrambled eggs in the prepared pie plate.
  5. Add the remaining whipped eggs over the scrambled eggs to give a smoother surface.
  6. Lay the Gruyere and the roasted asparagus atop the eggs.
  7. Place under the broiler until the eggs are firm but not tough and the cheese is browning, maybe 5 minutes.
