Drain the asparagus and set it aside.
Preheat your broiler.
Add the blanched asparagus to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, lightly beat the 6 large eggs with the 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup basil leaves, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan with the vegetables. Stir gently with a fork to make sure the vegetables are evenly distributed.
Cook over medium-low heat until the frittata is mostly set, with just the very top still slightly loose. This should take about 8 minutes.
Transfer the skillet directly under the broiler. Cook for just 1-2 minutes, watching carefully, until the top is golden brown and fully set. Be sure not to let it burn.
Carefully invert the frittata onto a large platter.
