Procedure
- Preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs, cream, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a medium bowl to blend. Set aside.
- Heat the oil and butter in a 9 1/2-inch-diameter nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat.
- Add the asparagus and sauté until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high.
- Add the tomato and a pinch of salt and sauté 2 minutes longer.
- Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus mixture and cook for a few minutes until the eggs start to set.
- Sprinkle with cheese. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the frittata is almost set but the top is still runny, about 2 minutes. Place the skillet under the broiler.
- Broil until the top is set and golden brown on top, about 5 minutes. Let the frittata stand 2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from skillet and slide the frittata onto a plate.
Feel free to adjust the taste according to your preference. For instance, you can add pepper and spice if you want it hot. You can also use cheese instead of Fontina, if you like. The whole recipe can serve up to six persons.
