asparagus gratin






Love asparagus and we still have here so I really enjoyed making little puddings or quiches.
The funny of this recipe say "asparagus gratin" but when I take of the oven looked like soufflés, anyway they down a little
later but still were absolutely delicious!
And I dont find where is from the recipe, only had a little piece of paper:)





Ingredients
(4-5 ramekins)

500 g  asparagus clean and chopped on pieces
(set aside  someones to garnish over the ramekins)
3 eggs
1 cup of half and half  cream
salt and pepper
1 1/4 cup  grated parmesan cheese



Method

Put the asparagus with a pinch of salt  in a saute pan or skillet.
 Cover and cook just for 4 to 5 minutes until almost tender. We’ll finish cooking them in the oven.(set aside someones to garnish)
In a bowl whisk the eggs and add the cream and the grated cheese, salt pepper and finally the chopped asparagus.
Preheat the oven to 180°c.
Butter the ramekins and divide the mix on them.Cook by 15  to 20 minutes or bake until be little golden
Garnish with some asparagus before serve.

EN ESPAÑOL
GRATIN DE ESPARRAGOS









 
 
Esta receta me pareció sencillamente deliciosa, aún se encuentran espárragos en algunas partes y en caso se podría hacer con espárragos en lata. En Concepción hace muchos años mi mamá hacía un consomé de espárragos, cuando tenía espárragos frescos ocupaba el liquido de cocción y con este hacía el consomé.
Cuando no habían espárragos frescos sencillamente ocupaba de esas latas de espárragos y la sopa igual quedaba maravillosa.
Si les interesa la receta la pondré más adelante es un consomé delicioso.
Estos budincitos parecen souflés y asi quedan solo que despues se bajan un poco pero son más como pequeños budines, muy buenos y livianos!
 
Ingredientes
 
(4/5 porciones)
 
500 gramos de espárragos
(guardar algunos para adornar)
3 huevos
1 taza de crema
1  1/4 taza  de queso rallado parmesano
sal y pimienta a gusto
 
Método
 
En una olla mediana o sartén poner agua y un poco de sal y agregar los espárragos lavados y limpios (si son los verdes no hay que pelarlos no es necesario)
Cocinar a fuego medio de 4 a 5 minutos lo necesario para que estén tiernos (despues se  terminaran de cocinar en el horno)
En un bol batir los huevos, agregar la crema y el queso rallado, batir bien, agregar los esparragos en trozos (reservar algunos)
y finalmente sal y pimienta.
Enmantequillar los moldes y repartir la mezcla . Precalentar el horno a 180° c llevar a horno por unos 15 a 20 minutos o hasta que esten dorados.
Adornar con unos espárragos.
Servir inmediatamente o tibios, puede ser una entrada o un plato.

  17. I love asparagus and would try this in a minute, Gloria. Souffles often sink like that...so do popovers etc. I made some last week and took a photo the second they came out of the oven, before they deflated. But....I always tell readers it's going to happen.

  18. Hola Gloria:
    Siempre me ha gustado este tipo de plato. Se ven tan lindos puestos de forma individual y además son exquisitos.
    Yo utilizo un montón los espárragos frescos. Siempre tengo un manojito en el refri. Son saludables, bajos en calorías y adoro su sabor.
    Un abrazo y buen fin de semana
