Scrambled Eggs over Asparagus image

Provided by Claire Robinson

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds fresh asparagus, trimmed and cleaned
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt, plus more for seasoning
Freshly ground black pepper
6 eggs
3 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Clean and trim the asparagus by breaking off 1 asparagus end at its natural breaking point and lining up the tip end next to the remaining stalks. Trim them to the broken asparagus' length. Compost the woody ends. Lay the asparagus out on a rimmed sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place them in the preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes or until tips are browned and starting to crisp.
  • In a small cup, crack each egg. Add each egg to a mixing bowl, stir in the milk, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Beat the egg mixture with a whisk, in a figure 8 pattern until the ingredients are completely blended together. In a nonstick saute pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Once butter has melted, add the eggs and cook over low heat, stirring gently with a silicone spatula. Keep the eggs moving, continuing to cook until they are cooked but soft, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Warm the serving platter or serving plates in a preheated low temperature oven, or microwave the plate for 6 to 10 seconds. Scatter roasted asparagus on the heated plate, and spoon the scrambled eggs over the asparagus. Eat immediately and enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 pound fresh asparagus
Good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/8 cup freshly grated Parmesan
6 extra-large eggs
3 tablespoons half-and-half
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, divided
2 to 4 slices 7-grain bread

SPAGHETTI WITH FRIED EGGS



Spaghetti With Fried Eggs image

Here's a quick and delicious pasta dish to make when you have little time, and even less food in the house. All you need is a box of spaghetti, four eggs, olive oil and garlic (Parmesan is a delicious, but optional, addition).

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     breakfast, easy, quick, weeknight, pastas, main course

Time 20m

Yield 2 or 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Salt
1/2 pound thin spaghetti
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or lard
2 large cloves garlic, lightly smashed and peeled
4 eggs
Freshly ground black pepper
Freshly grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese, optional

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to the boil. Start the sauce in the next step, and start cooking the pasta when the water boils.
  • Combine garlic and 4 tablespoons of the oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the garlic, pressing it into the oil occasionally to release its flavor; it should barely color on both sides. Remove the garlic, and add the remaining oil.
  • Fry the eggs gently in the oil, until the whites are just about set and the yolks still quite runny. Drain the pasta, and toss with the eggs and oil, breaking up the whites as you do. (The eggs will finish cooking in the heat of the pasta.) Season to taste, and serve immediately, with cheese if you like.

I try to avoid carbs as much as possible and this recipe is just about the best thing ever. It's low in fat, high in nutrition but it does fill you up. These directions are for one, so just multiply the ingredients for however many you need. You can also use this recipe as a starter.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 40m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 cleaned white asparagus
7 shrimp
1 tablespoon butter
salt
pepper
garlic
2 eggs
parsley (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Fill a pot with enough water for the cleaned asparagus to be fully under. Add some salt. Place the pot on the stove and add the asparagus to the cold water. Turn on full heat and leave the asparagus in the water until it cooks.
  • Peal the shrimp in the meantime and fry them with some butter in a pan. Season with plenty of salt, pepper en garlic. While they cook, go ahead and whisk your eggs in a bowl with some salt and pepper.
  • When the shrimp are done, take them out and add some more butter to the pan. In this pan, make scrambled eggs. Making the eggs in the same pan will give them a great taste.
  • When the water for the asparagus boils, turn off the heat but let the asparagus float in the water for about 5 minutes. To check if they are done, poke them with a fork, if the asparagus falls of before your fork leaves the water, they are done.
  • Place asparagus on a plate, pile on the eggs and decorate with the shrimp. Use nice, green, fresh parsley for garnish.

SKILLET-BAKED EGGS AND ASPARAGUS



Skillet-Baked Eggs and Asparagus image

Asparagus and eggs have an affinity for each other. The voluptuous yolk softens and smoothes the grassy sharpness of the vegetable, while the asparagus brightens up the dull richness of the egg. The pair's most classic expression is asparagus hollandaise, but that is too fussy and time-consuming a preparation for a regular home-cooked breakfast. This dish combines the flavors in a time- and cook-friendly way.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, easy, weekday, appetizer, main course, side dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil, more for drizzling
3/4 pounds asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 scallions, white and light green parts, thinly sliced
8 large eggs
6 tablespoons roughly chopped soft herbs like basil, cilantro, chives or parsley use at least 2
1/3 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt
black pepper, to taste
Lemon wedges, for serving
Flaky sea salt for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 300 degrees. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the asparagus and the scallions and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is browned and tender.
  • Whisk together the eggs, 4 tablespoons of the herbs, and cream. Whisk in Parmesan, salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over asparagus and place the skillet in the oven.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, until set, but still slightly jiggly in the center. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before serving. It is best warm, not hot.
  • Squeeze one or two lemon wedges over it, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and remaining herbs. Cut into wedges.

SPANISH SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH PIMENTON AND ASPARAGUS

Huevos Revueltos Con Esparragos - this traditional Spanish recipe is usually made with wild asparagus - but very tiny sprues will work equally well. This delicious and very indulgent light supper dish will feed four people with side dishes and crusty bread, or two greedy people! It is also excellent served as a Tapas dish - make sure there is lots of bread to scoop it up with!

Provided by French Tart

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb fresh green asparagus
5 large free-range eggs
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (Pimenton)
1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 pinch ground cumin
salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ounce butter

Steps:

  • Trim the woody ends from the asparagus, removing tough fibrous outer layers from the stalks if they are large - a potato peeler is good for this.
  • Cut the asparagus into 1" lengths - setting aside the tips.
  • Bring a pan of water to the boil and boil the asparagus for 2 to 4 minutes - excluding the tips; add the tips and boil for a further 2 minutes.
  • Drain carefully - the asparagus should be just tender but not too soft.

  • Warm the olive oil with the butter in a large roomy pan - over a moderate heat.
  • When the butter has melted and the oil is sizzling, add the beaten eggs.
  • Stir for 1 minute with a wooden spoon, then add the asparagus. Cook for a further 1 - 2 minutes, until the eggs are just set.
  • Serve at once, sprinkled with pimenton, crusty bread and side dishes of olives, almonds and choritzo.

Egg Noodles with Asparagus and Grated Egg Yolks image

Crisp-tender asparagus, bright lemon zest and juice, rich mascarpone, and salty Pecorino Romano make a sensational sauce for this one-pot pasta dish. Grated hard-cooked egg yolks add extra oomph.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Pasta and Grains

Time 40m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 pound asparagus, trimmed, stems cut on the bias into 1/2-inch pieces, tips cut into 2-inch lengths
12 ounces wide egg noodles
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest, plus 3 tablespoons fresh juice
8 ounces mascarpone
1/2 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano or Parmesan (2 ounces)
4 hard-cooked egg yolks, grated on the large holes of a box grater

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook until crisp-tender and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add pasta to water; cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 1/2 cups pasta water. Return pasta to pot with asparagus. Stir in zest and juice and both cheeses; toss to coat. Add pasta water, little by little, to adjust consistency until creamy. Sprinkle with grated yolks and pepper; serve.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are bright green, firm, and have tightly closed tips. Avoid spears that are limp, woody, or have yellow or brown spots.
  • Trim the asparagus: Snap off the tough ends of the asparagus spears. You can also use a knife to cut off the ends.
  • Cook the asparagus properly: Asparagus can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, roasting, and grilling. Be careful not to overcook the asparagus, as it will become mushy.
  • Use high-quality eggs: The quality of the eggs you use will make a big difference in the taste of the scrambled eggs. Look for eggs that are fresh and free of cracks.
  • Season the eggs well: Be generous with the salt and pepper when seasoning the scrambled eggs. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or herbs.
  • Cook the eggs slowly: Scrambled eggs should be cooked slowly over low heat. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta with asparagus and scrambled eggs is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
