Asparagus And Leek Frittata Food

ASPARAGUS AND LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• In an oven-safe skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add leeks, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until nearly cooked through and softened. Add asparagus and cook for an additional five minutes or until it is tender, but still crisp.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and additional salt and pepper.
• Once asparagus is cooked, add egg mixture, reduce heat to low, and cook for 1 minute, stirring gently. Move to preheated oven and bake for 23-25 minutes or until eggs are set.
• May be served hot, room temperature, or even cold.

FRITTATA WITH ASPARAGUS, LEEK & RICOTTA

Steps:

• Position rack in upper third of oven; preheat broiler.
• Whisk eggs, crème fraîche, salt and pepper in a medium bowl; set near the stove. Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add leeks and asparagus and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cook, lifting the edges so uncooked egg can flow underneath, until nearly set, about 2 minutes. Dollop ricotta and pesto on top and place the pan under the broiler until the eggs are slightly browned, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Let stand for 3 minutes.
• Run a spatula around the edge of the frittata, then underneath, until you can slide or lift it out onto a cutting board or serving plate. Top with basil.

LEEK AND ASPARAGUS FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Melt butter in heavy broilerproof 10-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and sauté 4 minutes. Add asparagus and shiitake mushrooms, sprinkle lightly with salt, and sauté until tender, about 6 minutes. Whisk eggs, 3/4 cup Fontina cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in medium bowl. Add egg mixture to skillet; fold gently to combine. Cook until almost set. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Fontina cheese and Parmesan cheese over. Broil until frittata is puffed and cheese begins to turn golden, about 3 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Drizzle olive oil over the mushrooms and asparagus on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast until a nice color is achieved, about 12 minutes. Set aside.
• Beat together the eggs with some salt and pepper in a bowl. (Do not over-beat; just mix until the eggs mostly come together.) Stir in the Monterey Jack, Parmesan and hot sauce and set aside.
• In a large ovenproof nonstick skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and golden brown, several minutes. Add the diced potatoes, sprinkle with salt and pepper and stir to cook for a couple of minutes. Finally, add the asparagus, mushrooms, olives and roasted red peppers and cook, stirring, until everything is hot.
• Make sure all the ingredients are evenly distributed across the bottom of the skillet, then pour in the egg mixture so that it evenly coats everything. Let it sit on the burner for 30 to 45 seconds to set the edges, then put the skillet in the oven. Cook, watching it carefully, until the eggs are set but not very brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Slide the frittata out of the skillet and onto a cutting board. Sprinkle on the basil and slice into wedges with a long serrated knife.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• 2. Toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the garlic. Spread out the asparagus on a baking sheet.
• 3. In the same mixing bowl, toss the leeks with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper. Spread out the leeks on a separate baking sheet.
• 4. Put both baking sheets in the oven and roast the asparagus and leeks for 5 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the oven, turn once, and return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until nicely browned. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets.
• 5. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F.
• 6. Chop the asparagus and leeks into 1-inch pieces.
• 7. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus, leeks, and red onion and cook for 2 minutes.
• 8. Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs and cream with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl until frothy. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus and leeks.
• 9. Bake the frittata for 10 to 12 minutes, or until it is nicely set but not overly firm. Allow the frittata to stand for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

ASPARAGUS AND SPINACH FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and saute for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and sauteed leeks with the spinach, asparagus, goat cheese, basil, Parmesan, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Mix well.
• Spray a 9-inch nonstick cake pan or springform pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add the breadcrumbs and shake to evenly coat the pan. Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
• Bake until solid and a toothpick comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
• Invert the frittata onto a plate and then flip, right-side up, onto a serving plate, or remove the sides of the springform pan and transfer to a serving plate.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM FRITTATA

• In a large skillet with an ovenproof handle, heat 1 tablespoons each of the butter and olive oil over high heat; cook the mushrooms and garlic, stirring often, for about 2 minutes or until the mushrooms are softened.
• With a slotted spoon, remove to a bowl and set aside.
• Drain the liquid from the skillet; heat the remaining butter and olive oil over medium heat, swirling to coat the pan.
• Combine the eggs, parsley and pepper; pour into the skillet.
• Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until the top is almost set.
• Sprinkle with the mushroom mixture; arrange the asparagus like wheel spokes on top.
• Sprinkle with the mozzarella, then with the Parmesan.
• Broil until the cheese melts and is lightly browned.

ASPARAGUS & NEW POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Put the potatoes in a pan of cold salted water and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cook for 4-5 mins until nearly tender, then add the asparagus for a final 1 min. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan and add the onion. Cook for about 8 mins until softened.
• Mix the eggs with half the cheese in a jug and season well. Pour over the onion in the pan, then scatter over the asparagus and potatoes. Top with the remaining cheese and put under the grill for 5 mins or until golden and cooked through. Cut into wedges and serve from the pan with salad.
