Frying pan
Pan for boiling eggs
- 1 tsp Butter Organic, or ghee, or coconut oil
- 4 Asparagus Spears
- 4 Quails eggs Organic
- 2 Bacon Rashers, Organic
- 1 tsp Chives Fresh, finely chopped
- 2 Spring onions Finely chopped
First, heat your chosen fat in a frying pan to a medium heat. Add the asparagus and cook for around 10 minutes until really golden and crispy, turning often.
Next, add the bacon to the pan and continue to fry for another 3 or 4 minutes with the asparagus, turning once.
Meanwhile, bring a pan of salted water to the boil. Dunk the quail’s eggs in, and set the timer for two minutes exactly. As soon as the time is up, drain them and pour in cold water.
Serve the bacon on a plate alongside the asparagus. Peel the quail’s eggs and chop them in half, placing them on top of the asparagus so the tips soak up the yolks. Garnish with the chives and spring onions.
