- 1 bunch of asparagus, ends trimmed and cut into 1-inch segment
- 3-4 ounces smoked salmon, roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or cheese of your choice)
- Fresh dill or chives for garnish (optional
Instructions:
- Prepare the Oven: Turn the oven on to 375°F (190°C) and leave it there.
- Get the egg mixture ready. Whisk the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper in a large mixing basin until well blended. Put aside.
- To sauté the vegetables, place a pan that is oven-safe over medium heat and add butter or olive oil. After adding the finely chopped onion, sauté it for three to four minutes, or until it becomes transparent and soft. When the asparagus is brilliant green and barely tender, add the pieces and simmer for a further three to four minutes.
- Stir in the coarsely chopped smoked salmon and let it warm through, about one to two minutes.
- Mix with Egg Mixture: Cover the salmon and veggies in the skillet with the egg mixture. Over the top, scatter the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Cook the Frittata: Cook the frittata over medium heat for two to three minutes, or until the edges start to firm.
Bake: The frittata should be baked for ten to fifteen minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set through. When a knife is inserted into the centre, it should come out clean, indicating that the food is done. - Garnish and Serve: Take the frittata out of the oven and let it a few minutes to cool before serving. Cut into wedges and reheat.
