How to make asparagus, kale and smoked salmon frittata

One of the greatest things about frittata is how easy it is to make. If you’re looking for delicious asparagus and kale recipes to get you through the season, this dish is perfect. 

To make this asparagus frittata recipe, start by preheating your oven to 180°C and grease a frying pan to ensure the frittata doesn't stick. Next, blanch the asparagus by adding them to a heatproof bowl and covering with boiling water for 1 minute. This allows them to par cook without losing too much of their flavour or texture. Then sautee the kale slightly with some garlic in a frying pan. 

Next, layer the asparagus, kale and salmon in a pan and pour over the whisked mixture of eggs, milk and half of the sour cream. Bake for 35-40 minutes until browned and set, then serve with your favourite salad and a side of sour cream whisked with lemon juice.
