Author Notes
This is inspired by a pizza I had in Barcelona 3 summers ago. I've been making it in sandwich form since I got back and it makes me swoon every time. I make it when I find myself at home alone and occasionally for a lucky friend. It is infinitely greater than the sum of its parts. —iuzzini
Ingredients
-
1
fresh egg (fried to taste)
-
2 pieces
farm bread (toasted)
-
2-3
asparagus spears (roasted)
-
.5
tomato
-
drizzle olive oil
-
grated parmesan or another delicious cheese with a bite
-
1-2
slices prosciutto (optional)
-
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
-
Butter or olive oil for the skillet
Directions
-
Lube a medium sized skillet with butter or olive oil. If you have some leftover roasted asparagus, put them into the pan to reheat- if not, break off the ends of the spears, roll in olive oil, salt and pepper, and roll them around in the hot skillet until soft yet still bright green.
-
Begin frying your egg in the other half of the pan.
-
Toast 2 slices of delicious chewy farm bread or something along the same line . . .
-
Flip your egg if desired. Salt and pepper it.
-
Rub the tomato half onto the toasted bread. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
-
Slice the asparagus lengthwise. Begin assembling your sandwich: bread, prosciutto (if you decided to go in that direction), egg, asparagus, grated cheese, bread. Slice in half. Enjoy with some wine or beer. Think about Gaudi.
