Serves: 2–4 • Time: ~20 min
Heat the olive oil (or butter) in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and sauté 2–3 min until soft.
Add the asparagus and cook 3–4 min until bright green and just tender.
Whisk the eggs: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Assemble the frittata: Pour the eggs into the skillet over the asparagus. Gently swirl the pan to spread them evenly.
Nestle the chunks of tomini evenly across the top (don’t mix them in — let them melt into creamy pockets).
Cook gently: Reduce heat to low and cook 4–5 min until the edges are set but the center is still a little soft.
Finish under the broiler: Transfer the skillet to the oven and broil for 1–2 min until the top is puffed, golden, and fully set.
Let it cool for 2 min, slice into wedges, and top with fresh herbs. Serve warm or at room temp with crusty bread or a simple salad.
Drizzle with a little lemon oil or sprinkle lemon zest on top before serving — it makes the asparagus pop
