- Preheat the oven to broil.
- Put a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet (about 10 inches in diameter) over a medium high-heat. When hot, add the onion. Sprinkle with salt & pepper and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped asparagus and boiled/dried potatoes and cook another 2-3 minutes.

SPANISH-STYLE POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA
Spain has one of my favorite omelets made from potatoes, cheese and onions called a "tortilla." Not to be confused with a Mexican tortilla, a Spanish tortilla is like the perfect mash-up of a baked potato and scrambled eggs. The Spanish serve it like an appetizer, but I love making it into an omelet. The key is to season every layer with salt and pepper at each stage. Small yellow potatoes are a bit more work to peel and dice, but they're sweeter than larger russet potatoes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven in broiler mode and place a rack 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30.5 centimeters) below the heating element.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and 1/4 cup (25 grams) of the Parmesan cheese.
- Place the peeled and diced potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, then toss with 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of the olive oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 6 to 9 minutes total, or until fork tender.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of olive oil and the butter over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch (25-centimeter) omelet pan. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes to the pan and toss gently so that the potatoes don't break apart. Season the mixture with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Pour the reserved egg mixture into the pan over the potatoes and onions. Shake the pan gently while you lift the edges of the frittata; repeat until the eggs start to set, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the stove to low and sprinkle the mozzarella and remaining 1/4 cup (25 grams) of Parmesan over the top of the frittata.
- Once the frittata is mostly set, place the pan under the broiler for a minute or two to lightly brown the cheese. Remove from the heat and let the tortilla rest for at least 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with some sour cream, if desired.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy varieties like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss hold their shape better than starchy varieties during cooking, making them ideal for frittata.
- Slice the potatoes thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
- Season the potatoes well: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are a good starting point.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If the pan is too crowded, the potatoes will steam rather than fry, resulting in a soggy frittata.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a nice crispy texture.
- Use a nonstick skillet: This will help prevent the frittata from sticking and make it easier to flip.
- Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked through but still slightly runny. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help it hold its shape better.
- Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature: It can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Conclusion:
This potato, onion, and asparagus frittata is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences.
