Asparagus & Gruyère Frittata
A light and flavorful frittata, perfect for a spring meal. Tender asparagus and savory Gruyère cheese are baked into fluffy eggs.
Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and cut the spears into 2-3 cm pieces. Finely chop the onion and grate the Gruyère cheese.
2
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe, non-stick pan (approx. 24 cm diameter) over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the asparagus pieces and cook for another 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
3
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, the remaining salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
4
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the pan. Sprinkle the grated Gruyère cheese over the top. Let it cook undisturbed on the stovetop for 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
5
Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed, golden brown, and cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
