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

Categories     Egg     Breakfast     Quick & Easy

Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 5

Asparagus
Shallots
Cheese (hard, grating cheese ie. Romano)
Lemon juice
Eggs

Steps:

  • Cook asparagus in melted butter. After two minutes, throw in the shallots. Brown, sprinkle with lemon juice, toss and put aside. Clean pan with a paper towel, add a little butter, and cook beaten eggs for a minute, lift and set to distribute egg. Once mostly set, sprinkle asparagus, then cheese on top. Cook for 30s, remove from heat, let sit covered for 5 mins Serve. Serve

Tips:

  • Use fresh asparagus. Fresh asparagus will have a crisp texture and a bright green color. Avoid asparagus that is limp or has brown spots.
  • Cook the asparagus properly. Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, but the most common method is to sauté it in a pan with butter or oil. Be sure to cook the asparagus until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese you use in your omelet will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Swiss.
  • Add other ingredients to your omelet. In addition to asparagus and cheese, you can add a variety of other ingredients to your omelet, such as ham, bacon, vegetables, or herbs. Get creative and experiment with different flavor combinations.
  • Cook the omelet over medium heat. Cooking the omelet over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning and will give it a more evenly cooked texture.
  • Fold the omelet over. Once the omelet is cooked through, fold it over in half or into thirds. This will help to keep the ingredients inside the omelet and will make it easier to eat.

Conclusion:

Asparagus omelets are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give asparagus omelets a try.
