    List of Ingredients




    Asparagus Frittata


    * 2 teaspoons olive oil
    * 1 small onion, thinly sliced
    * 1/2 teaspoon salt
    * 1 pound asparagus, tough ends snapped off, spears cut diagonally into 1-inch lengths
    * 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
    * 1 cup shredded Gruyere or Swiss cheese

    Recipe





    1 Heat olive oil into a 10-inch oven-proof frying pan over medium high heat. Add onions and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 3 minutes. Add asparagus, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, covered, until the asparagus are barely tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour in eggs and cook until almost set, but still runny on top, about 2 minutes. While cooking, pre-heat oven broiler.

    2 Sprinkle cheese over eggs and put in oven to broil until cheese is melted and browned, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from oven with oven mitts and slide frittata onto a serving plate. Cut into wedges.

    Yield: Serves 4.
