Asparagus Fritata

When we were growing up, Asparagus were more of a treat. It's one of those vegetables who only available in supermarket not in our regular market. My first Asparagus exeperience was at a wedding (dad's colleague's daughter) and God it was horrible. And I never tried it again until I moved to Edinburgh where Asparagus is one those veggies which you can find anywhere, everywhere and anytime. So I gave in but before I became a fully believer I spent days, even weeks reading how to cook Asparagus. Exactly a year ago I cooked my first Asparagus and I've been a fan ever since. Hubby is still sticking to his not-in-a-million-years so it is still a delicacy in our household.

This is my take on Spanish Fritata with Garlic Asparagus.

3 Eggs
100 grams of cooked potatoed, finely sliced
200 grams of baby potatoes, boiled in salt water. 
a handful of frozen peas
100 grams of dried apricots, finely chopped.
200 grams steak mince
1 red onion, sliced
Corianders
Cheese

* Beat the eggs, add milk, salt and pepper. Leave it aside.
* Heat up the skillet (make sure this skillet is big enough for the whole mixture if not use two medium size skillet), add the mince and cook until brown but not cooked.
* Add the onion, apricots and the cooked potatoes. Mix it well  and cook for another 15 minutes. Then add the egg mixture and peas and cook for another ten minutes.
* To make sure that the eggs are cooked thoroughly put the skillet under the grill and in a low heat grill the mixture for another 5 - 7 minutes or until is golden.
* Test it with a fork or a skewer to make sure it's well cooked.
* To finish the dish chopped a handul of coriander and grated some cheese, and sprinkle on top.
