This is another from an old cookbook. It is creamy and yummy, and the tarragon gives it an unusual flavor. You can substitute basil, rosemary or another herb if you like. I have also used a variety of different cheeses. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter |
1 scallion, chopped |
1 cup fresh asparagus |
1 egg, beaten |
2/3 cup swiss cheese, grated |
1/2 cup milk |
1/4 teaspoon tarragon |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cut asparagus into 1 inch pieces. In a small frying pan, melt the butter and saute the scallion and asparagus for a few minutes until both are fairly soft. Place the mixture in the bottom of a well-oiled 1 quart casserole.
2. In a bowl, beat the cheese, milk, salt and tarragon into the egg. Pour this mixture over the asparagus mixture in the casserole.
3. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
4. Let cool for 10 minutes, then serve.
