Frittata with Asparagus, Tomato, and Fontina Cheese 6 large eggs 2 T. whipping cream 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1 T. olive oil 1 T. butter 12-oz. asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces 1 tomato, seeded and diced 3-oz. fontina cheese, cubed Preheat the broiler. In a medium bowl, whisk in the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper to blend. Set aside. In a 9-1/2 inch (nonstick) ovenproof skillet, heat the oil and butter over medium heat. Add the asparagus and saute' until tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Add the tomato and saute' 2 minutes longer. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus mixture and sprinkle the cheese over. Cover and cook over medium-low heat until the frittata is almost set but the top is still runny, about 2 minutes. Place the skillet under the broiler and broil until the top is set and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Let the frittata stand for 2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the skillet and slide the frittata onto a plate. Cut into wedges and serve. recipe~"Everyday Italian" by Giada de Laurentiis Enjoy!
