Provided by Brookelynne26

Categories     Cheese

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lbs asparagus, cut into 5- to 6-inch lengths (use the thicker stem ones if possible)
freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
4 tablespoons butter
4 eggs
coarse salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus; cook in boiling salted water until just crisp-tender, approximately 4 to 5 minutes for thick stalks. Remove from heat and remove asparagus with a slotted spoon; drain on several thicknesses of paper toweling until ready to serve. Remember that the asparagus will continue to cook from their own heat as they stand and cool, so if you like very firm asparagus, time them accordingly. Divide cooked asparagus among 4 individual serving plates. Sprinkle with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
  • In a medium-size frying pan over medium heat, heat the butter until just hot enough to sizzle a drop of water. Break and slip eggs into the pan; reduce heat to low and cook approximately 2 to 3 minutes or until whites are set but yolks are still runny. With a spatula, remove the eggs to the plates you will serve them on and place on top of the asparagus (be careful not to break the yolks). The eggs should be hot enough to slightly melt the grated parmesan cheese
  • If the butter hasn't already begun to brown, increase the heat under the frying pan and cook butter until lightly browned. Pour the browned butter over the top of the eggs. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Serve immediately.

ASPARAGUS ALLA MILANESE (POACHED ASPARAGUS WITH FRIED EGG AND PARMESAN CHEESE) RECIPE



Asparagus alla Milanese (Poached Asparagus With Fried Egg and Parmesan Cheese) Recipe image

Asparagus alla Milanese has just three main ingredients-asparagus, a fried egg, and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese-but don't let that simplicity fool you. It's an elegant and near-perfect dish: the asparagus is poached until juicy, the egg is lacy around the edges and has a flowing yolk that mingles with the cheese to make a flavorful sauce.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving, optional
3 large egg yolks
1 pound jumbo asparagus
8 ounces fettuccine
6 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Mix the Parmesan, egg yolks, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper together in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Snap off the woody ends of the asparagus stalks. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the asparagus into thin wide ribbons. (The last strip of asparagus will be a little thicker than the others, but it is fine to use.) Set aside.
  • Cook the fettuccine in the boiling water according to the package instructions for al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Drain off all but 2 tablespoons bacon fat from the skillet. Add the crushed red pepper flakes and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium low, add the drained pasta and asparagus and toss until well coated and mixed with the bacon.
  • Whisk 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water into the egg mixture, then quickly pour it over the pasta and toss to gently cook the eggs and make a creamy sauce. Thin out the mixture with more pasta water as needed, 1 tablespoon at a time. Divide among 4 bowls and garnish with the parsley and more Parmesan if desired.

ROASTED SALMON WITH ASPARAGUS, LEMON AND BROWN BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Asparagus, Lemon and Brown Butter image

Ready in just 15 minutes, this fast dinner combines silky salmon with a vibrant green medley of asparagus and peas. While the fish roasts, the vegetables and sauce come together in one pan on the stovetop. Thinly slicing the asparagus is the trick to maintaining a crisp texture that complements the tender salmon, while bright lemon juice and zingy capers balance the nutty brown butter sauce. Parsley is used here to finish, but dill or tarragon would also be lovely. Leftover vegetables make a fantastic omelet filling the next day.
