Directions
Spanish Scrambled Eggs With Pimenton and Asparagus, Huevos Revueltos Con Esparragos – this traditional Spanish recipe is usually made with wild asparagus – but very tiny sprues will work equally well This delicious and very indulgent light supper dish will feed four people with side dishes and crusty bread, or two greedy people! It is also excellent served as a Tapas dish – make sure there is lots of bread to scoop it up with!, Great combination of flavors I cut the recipe back to two eggs, used 5 Asparagus spears, no butter or oil Lovely light supper that really hit the spot Thanks FT for another excellent recipe
