ASPARAGUS FRITTATA WITH BURRATA AND HERB PESTO



Asparagus Frittata With Burrata and Herb Pesto image

Frittata, the savory Italian egg dish, can be thick or thin, flipped in the pan or finished under the broiler. This one, slathered with creamy burrata and drizzled with herb-laden oil, is a rather deluxe version of the ideal, worthy of a weekend lunch or a late dinner.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small bunch medium asparagus, tough bottoms removed
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup basil leaves, plus a few small basil leaves for garnish
1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 ball of fresh burrata, about 1/2 pound, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Rinse asparagus, and pat dry. Cut into 1-inch pieces on the diagonal, or into julienne strips if preferred. Set aside.
  • In blender or small food processor, purée olive oil, basil and parsley to make a thin pesto. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Put a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or other nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add butter and swirl to coat pan, then add asparagus. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring for about a minute without browning.
  • Quickly pour in eggs and stir with a wooden spoon, as if making scrambled eggs. Tilt pan and lift mixture at the edges to allow any runny egg from the top to make its way to the bottom. After 3 or 4 minutes, the frittata should be mostly set. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
  • Lay a lid over the skillet, and turn off the heat. Leave for a minute or so, until frittata is moist and just done. (Alternatively, place pan under a hot broiler for a minute or so.)
  • Set whole burrata in the center of frittata. Drizzle with herb pesto. Pierce burrata with tip of a knife and spoon contents over frittata. Cut frittata into wedges and serve directly from pan, garnished with basil leaves.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 shallot, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup half-and-half
8 large eggs
1 cup grated Swiss cheese
1 cup diced deli ham
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish (optional)
[For Serving:] Green salad (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven broiler. Melt the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool. Reserve the skillet for cooking the frittata.

Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil until the eggs are just set, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Slide the frittata out onto a large plate or cutting board. Cut into wedges and sprinkle with more chives and serve warm or room temperature with a green salad if desired.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS FRITTATA



Roasted Asparagus Frittata image

Asparagus begs to be roasted; this recipe was developed after roasting a couple pounds and using them in a bunch of different dishes over a few days. This was the favorite, and frankly, the uber-favorite was this in a sandwich. More spring recipes.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     for two, quick, roasts, vegetables, side dish

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 to 12 medium to fat asparagus spears, trimmed
Olive oil
Salt and black pepper
4 eggs
1/4 to 1/2 cup chervil, roughly chopped, or parsley
1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan, optional

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spread asparagus on a baking sheet and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast, shaking the pan occasionally, until the asparagus is lightly charred and tender, about 12 minutes. (You can let the asparagus sit at room temperature for hours, or refrigerate overnight.)
  • Beat the eggs with salt, pepper, half the chervil (and half the cheese, if you like). Cut the asparagus into 2-inch lengths and arrange in a single layer in a 10-inch nonstick skillet. Drizzle with more olive oil and set over medium heat.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus. Use a spatula if necessary to make a round frittata. Cook until nearly set, tilting the pan and lifting the edge of the set egg to let the liquid egg flow underneath, about 4 minutes.
  • When the top is almost dry, flip the frittata onto a plate, then slide it back into the pan. Let cook for just a few seconds, then flip out onto a plate. Alternatively, use an ovenproof pan and put it in the oven or under the broiler for a few minutes.
  • Sprinkle with the remaining chervil (and cheese if you are using it) and serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
