Asparagus with egg in ghee butter and crispy Spicy Seeds

Our latest suggestion is asparagus with a fried egg in ghee butter and crispy Spicy Seeds by Diet-Food – the perfect breakfast, brunch, or light dinner. Filling, seasonal, and balanced.

What will you need? (1 serving)

• 6–8 fresh asparagus spears
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons of ghee butter
• a pinch of salt
• 1 garlic clove
• a little grated lemon zest (preferably organic)
• a handful of Spicy Seeds (approx. 20 g)
• 2 small slices of whole grain bread (approx. 50 gr

How to do it?

1. Prepare the asparagus – snap or cut off the tough ends.
2. In a heated pan with a tablespoon of ghee butter, sauté the asparagus for 1–2 minutes, lightly salting them.
3. Grate a little lemon zest, pour in 80 ml of water, and simmer the asparagus covered for 5 minutes.
4. Add finely chopped garlic and sauté a little longer uncovered.
5. Remove the asparagus from the pan, add the second tablespoon of ghee butter, and crack in the egg. Salt and fry for about 2 minutes – the white should set while the yolk stays runny.
6. Place the egg on the asparagus and sprinkle everything with crispy Spicy Seeds.
7. Serve with slices of bread – preferably toasted!
