Asparagus Frittata Recipe

Ingredients

For the Frittata:

  • 1 pound fresh asparagus
  • 2 cups grated Pecorino cheese
  • 1 cup plain bread crumbs
  • 10 large eggs
  • 6 cloves garlic - finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoons fresh mint - finely chopped
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt & pepper

Directions

Clean the asparagus by removing the hard part. Wash and cut into small pieces and dry.

In a bowl, add the asparagus, bread crumbs, cheese, garlic and mint and mix well. Add salt and pepper as desired.

In a separate bowl beat the 10 eggs with the milk. Add the eggs to the mixture and mix very well. Add 4 Tbs of EV olive oil and continue mixing.

Pre-heat the oven to 400F.

In a 12" cast iron skillet add 1/2 cup of EV olive oil and put on the stove. Once the oil is hot, add the mixture to the pan and quickly spread it evenly.

Let it cook for about 2-3 minutes on the stove and then transfer the pan to the top level of your oven.

Let it cook for 50 minutes (or once the top colors to your liking)  and you will have a perfect and crispy Frittata.
