Method

7 steps · 45 min

01
Whisk Eggs and Cream
In a large bowl, combine the eggs, whipping cream, salt, pepper, and half the fresh thyme. Whisk until the eggs and cream are fully incorporated.
02
Sauté Asparagus and Garlic
In an ovenproof sauté pan, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus pieces and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring, until they begin to soften.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about another minute, until fragrant.
03
Cook Eggs, Add Cheese
Spread the asparagus evenly across the bottom of the pan. Pour the egg mixture over the asparagus, letting it cook without stirring. As the edges begin to set, use a rubber spatula to gently loosen them from the pan so they don't stick or burn.
After 1 to 2 minutes, sprinkle the Asiago cheese evenly over the eggs.
04
Top and Broil
When the outer edges of the frittata have set but the center is still slightly runny, arrange the cherry tomatoes and the remaining asparagus spears on top. Sprinkle with the rest of the thyme, then take the pan off the heat and transfer it to an oven preheated to broil.
05
Finish Under Broiler
Broil the frittata, keeping a close eye on it to prevent burning. The broiler will help the top portion of the egg mixture set completely and cook through. After a few minutes, when the eggs are fully set and the top is lightly golden, carefully remove the pan from the oven.
06
Unmold Frittata
Use a rubber spatula to run around the edges and under the frittata, then slide it onto a round serving plate.
07
Slice and Serve
Slice the frittata and serve it warm or at room temperature.
