How to prepare Omelette with prosciutto, asparagus and potatoes

To prepare the omelette with prosciutto, asparagus, and potatoes, first peel the potatoes 1 and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes 2. Now move on to the asparagus, break them with your hands by applying slight pressure on the end of the stalk; this way you'll remove the hardest part 3.

Then cut the green part into slices 4. In a pan, pour a drizzle of oil, then add the potatoes 5 and the asparagus 6.

Stir-fry and cook everything over high heat for about 10 minutes 7. Season with salt 8 and set aside. In a bowl, pour the eggs and season with salt 9.

Add the milk 10 and beat with a whisk 11 until you get a homogeneous mixture. Heat a pan with an 8-inch diameter and grease it with a little butter 12.

When the pan is hot, pour a ladle of the egg mixture inside 13 and rotate it to cover the entire surface. Cover with a lid 14 and cook for about 2 minutes. At this point, using a spatula, fold the omelette in half 15.

Ensure the outside is well-golden while the center remains creamy 16. Continue this way for the others as well 17. Now plate: place the first omelette on a plate 18.

Add dollops of mayonnaise 19 and cubes of potatoes and asparagus 20. Place 3 slices of prosciutto on top of each omelette 21.

Advice

When you pour the egg mixture, the pan must be very hot; only in this way will the outside be golden and the inside still creamy.

Instead of asparagus, you can use other seasonal diced vegetables, or even spinach.
