Here's a recipe that makes me hang out for asparagus season! Herby Fritatta wiht Asparagus and Cheddar 6 eggs 1 cup loosely packed, grated cheddar cheese 1 cup cooked kumara cut into bite sized peices (I just microwave mine) 1 cup mixed soft herbs (mint, coriander, parsley, basil) freshly chopped 1/2 Tblsp oil 1 bunch asparagus, sliced Beat eggs in a bowl, add kumara, herbs and half the cheese.Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat (I use a cast iron one) and fry the asparagus for 1 minute until starting to colour.Turn down heat and add the egg mixture and cook gently for 5 - 6 minutes until the base is set. Sprinkle over remaining cheese then put the frying pan under the grill and cook the frittta for 3 - 5 minutes untl set and golden.Great hot or cold.
