Steps:
- First cook the asparagus. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil that is wide enough to hold the asparagus laying down. Place the Asparagus into the water and rapidly bring back to the boil, then immediately lower the heat and continue to simmer uncovered for around 4 minutes. It is cooked when a knife can easily pierce the base and it should bend a little, but not be floppy. Drain and remove the string and cut into 5 cm pieces.
- Fry the bacon until crispy, then drain.
- Beat the eggs with milk and season and heat the pan of olive oil over a low heat for 2 minutes. When hot, add the cooked, peeled and dried asparagus and cook for a couple of minutes until the asparagus is hot.
- Next, add the egg and milk mix and stir gently until the eggs start to cook and form.
- Sprinkle with bacon and cook gently for another 4 minutes.
- Sprinkle the cooked frittata with Fontina and Parmesan cheese and some black pepper.
- Optional - Add Salad

Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- Cook garlic in oil in a 10-inch well-seasoned cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 2 minutes. Discard garlic and add arugula, then cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper until combined, then pour over arugula in skillet and cook, undisturbed, over moderate heat until almost set, 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle cheese evenly on top and broil 4 to 5 inches from heat until eggs are just set and cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, seasonal vegetables. This will ensure that your frittata is packed with flavor.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. They should be tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the frittata.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the frittata from cooking evenly.
- Be patient. It takes a little time for the frittata to cook through. Don't rush it or you'll end up with a runny frittata.

A frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a frittata recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give frittata a try!
