When I was a little girl I used to beg my mother for scrambled eggs. I could eat it each day but there was one rule. It had to be just eggs, nothing more, maybe except for salt. When I was a teenagar my older sister used to feed me with eggs combined with each possible vegetable that was in the kitchen. I did not love it but I liked it. Now I’m back to my mama’s style. I like my eggs with maximum one or two additions. It can be with onion or with sausage or with bacon or… with asparaguses. I made it today and it was soooooooo good. Asparagus is one of my favorites, I’m glad that there will be spring in Europe soon (it’s still snowing there!) and I can eat it all the time. If you like asparaguses as well, here are some additional recipes.
You will need:
- 1 bread slice
- 2 eggs
- few asparaguses
- ¼ small onion, chopped
- 1/3 garlic clove, finely chopped
- olive oil
- salt and pepper
Cut asparaguses in half and cook in a salted water for about 4 minutes. On a medium heat with a bit of the olive oil glaze the onion, then add garlic and drained asparaguses. Fry for a couple of minutes. Meantime toast a slice of bread in toaster or an oven. In a small bowl mix the eggs, add salt and pepper and pour it into the pan. Fry to achieve a consistency of eggs that you like. When it’s ready transfer on a toast.
Enjoy, Marta

Hi Marta, I had the extreme pleasure of getting some beautiful teal-coloured duck eggs recently, which I scrambled for a breakfast here in England. They were fabulous – so different from hen eggs, I hope you can try them some time because they’re worth the effort of finding them.By the way – I heard that it’s better to salt the eggs once they’re cooked as adding it before will cause water to run out of them as they cook. Not sure if it’s true but I do it that way and it seems to result in a less dry scramble, though I guess technique has a lot to do with it and some people might not have that problem at all.

I too enjoy my scrambled eggs simple and drama-free – the same rule applies to rice (salt and butter are elixirs of the Gods’!). BTW, your blog is my new addiction. Lush photos, scrumptious recipes!

Oooh, pretty. I bet Alex would love this! As far as me and breakfast go, I only like the sweet stuff. Him, being German, doesn’t like that. :(And yes, it’s snowing hard today. I woke up to a winter… terrorland. I hope it’ll clear up and be nice and springy when you arrive!

I do love eggs too. I was apparently allergic when I was young so the smell of them was so alluring. Now, I eat them ALL the time.

Eggs and asparagus are a wonderful combo. Scrambled, in particular. I’m like you – I enjoy one, perhaps two, additional flavors, but overall want to taste mainly egg. Good stuff – thanks.

This blog is dear to me as breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! Also I don’t understand why so many people hate asparagus, it’s one of my favorite greens. 2 points!
