A Fritata is an open faced Italian Omellette. This is a good way to use Aspargus. You can alter the amounts depending on how many people you are going to serve. 1 Tbs. Olive oil 1 medium onion, chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced 3 cups coarsely chopped prepared asparagus, reserving some of the tips for garnish, about 1 ˝ lbs. 8 eggs 1 Tbs. Fresh basil, chopped, or 11/2 tsp. Dried ˝ cup grated mozzarella or parmesan cheese Salt & pepper Heat oil in a 12-inch, ovenproof, nonstick frying pan over med-high heat. Sauté onion, garlic and asparagus, stirring occasionally until vegetables are soft, 5-6 minutes; set aside. In a medium bowl beat the eggs; add cooked vegetables, basil, cheese, salt and pepper. Lightly oil the frying pan once more; pour in egg mixture. Cover and cook over medium heat til almost set. Remove the pan from heat and place the pan in an oven and cook the frittata under the broiler till the top is firm to the touch. Garnish the top with reserved tips. Serve immediately. The Fool
