Who knew asparagus and eggs tasted so good together? Fantastic for lazy Sunday mornings (that turn into afternoons) or a quick dinner.

ASPARAGUS AND PARMESAN OMELET



Asparagus and Parmesan Omelet image

This is a favorite omelet of mine. I make folded French omelets for one or two, and larger frittatas for a crowd.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 15m

Yield 2 rolled omelets, serving 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 thin or medium stalks asparagus, trimmed
4 large or extra-large eggs
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon low-fat milk
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon freshly grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, dill, chives, tarragon, or a combination
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Steam the asparagus until tender, about 5 minutes. Refresh with cold water, and pat dry. Cut into 1/2-inch slices and set aside.
  • Break 2 eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until frothy. Add salt and pepper to taste (about 1/8 teaspoon salt) and 2 teaspoons milk. Whisk 2 teaspoons of the Parmesan and half the herbs into the eggs and mix well.
  • Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. When the oil feels hot when you hold your hand above it, pour in the eggs, scraping every last bit into the pan. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle half the asparagus down the middle of the eggs, then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back towards you so that the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll out onto a plate. Repeat with the remaining eggs, Parmesan herbs, and asparagus, and serve.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect omelette texture, cook it over medium heat and avoid stirring or folding too much. This will help the eggs to set evenly and create a tender, fluffy omelette.
  • For a more flavorful omelette, use a variety of fillings such as cheese, vegetables, and meats. Grated or crumbled cheeses like cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan add a creamy, gooey texture, while sautéed vegetables like onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms provide a savory and colorful addition. Sliced ham, bacon, or sausage can also be added for a protein boost.
  • To ensure even cooking, use a non-stick skillet and make sure the eggs are evenly distributed across the pan. If the omelette starts to brown too quickly, reduce the heat and cover the skillet to help the eggs cook through.
  • When folding the omelette, use a spatula to gently lift one side of the omelette and fold it over the other side. This will create a half-moon shape and help keep the fillings inside the omelette.
  • Serve the omelette immediately with your favorite sides such as toast, fruit, or a side salad. You can also garnish the omelette with fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or dill for an extra pop of flavor.
