The Written Recipe

How to do the Mediterranean Diet Recipe Collection, Asparagus Omelette

Crack 6 eggs into a large bowl, and whisk vigorously, so there is no egg spam. You will want to strain the eggs with a fine strainer to remove any clots of egg and possible shell and set aside.

Then heat the pan on high heat, ready for asparagus.

(Tip 1. Blanch asparagus before adding egg mixture, so it’s half-cooked and set aside)

When pan is hot enough, add the asparagus so you can hear sizzle noise.

Then measure boiling water into jug, 500mls – 750mls.

Add the boiled water and move around and separate asparagus, then simmer gently for approx 1min 30.
(remove most of the water from the asparagus so it can reduce, and does not over cook)

Now add the extra olive oil (EVO) approx 3 – 3 1/2tbs, stir around a bit, the popping noise is the EVO and water evaporating, so all is good.

With the remaining liquid, let it reduce to enhance the flavors, therefore let reduce to nearly no liquid.

Here you add ingredients

Add the garlic to the egg mixture, and then give it a quick whisk. Add some salt and pepper, and add the egg mixture to the asparagus, then turn pan down to just under the high mark.

You don’t want to color it too much, and do not stir. Put the lid on the pan, and after one minute take the lid off and turn the pan down to low, so then it will cook all the way through,

Once cooked flip onto a cutting board or larger flat plate ready to cut a serve to the whole family and your besties.

Asparagus Omelette Remembering one thing in the whole process of cooking great food for a group of people…are you making enough? This recipe feeds a hungry 4 or so, therefore add more if required, up to what you think…you can only destroy this recipe by over cooking.

Here’s the one we did for all the Besties…amazing what double the recipes ingredients can do…more like a Frittata . It fed the throng.
