Ingredients
For 4 people, preparation time 10 minutes, cooking time 25-30 minutes.

  • 1 shallot
  • 200gr fresh asparagus
  • 5 eggs
  • 100ml milk (cow or vegetable)
  • 10gr parsley
  • Salt and pepper
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Method

1. Cut the shallot not too thin and cook it over low heat with very little oil. In the meantime, in a bowl, crack open the eggs.

2. Finely chop the parsley and some of the asparagus – leaving 4 or 5 on the side. Then add the chopped parsley and asparagus, salt and pepper to the eggs.

3. After mixing everything, making sure that the eggs are well beaten, add the milk. Arrange the cooked onions at the base of a lightly oiled baking tray. Pour over the egg mix, decorate with the whole asparagus and bake for 25 minutes at 200° C or until the omelette is well cooked.

Tips

– if the frittata still not cooked after 25-30minutes, increase the time by two minutes at a time to prevent the omelette from overcooking and take on an unpleasant rubbery consistency

– The omelette can be kept in the fridge for at least a couple of days, especially if it does not contain potatoes. The latter often tend to darken even after cooking.
