Fried eggs with asparagus

2 servings

10 minutes

Asparagus omelette is an exquisite and simple recipe from French cuisine that combines the tenderness of eggs with the refined taste of asparagus. Lightly sautéed in clarified butter after quick blanching, asparagus acquires a delicate texture and a hint of nuttiness. Topped with beaten eggs, it becomes a juicy base for an airy casserole that takes on a golden hue and rich flavor in the oven. Parsley adds freshness and a touch of spice, completing the composition. This dish is perfect for a morning breakfast or a light dinner served with crispy baguette and a glass of white wine.
