Ingredients

1/2	pound	asparagus	trimmed
2	tablespoons	butter
1	small	garlic clove	minced
1/2	pound	mushrooms	sliced
4	large	eggs	lightly beaten
2	tablespoons	milk
1/2	teaspoon	salt
3/4	teaspoon	basil	fresh, chopped or 1/4 ts dried
1	dash	black pepper	freshly ground

Directions

Cut asparagus in 1 inch pieces; cook in boiling salted water until tender, about 2 to 4 minutes.

Drain thoroughly.

Melt 1 T butter in 8 inch skillet, preferably one with non-stick lining; sauté garlic and mushrooms until done and moisture has evaporated. Remove from pan; keep warm.

In a small bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt, basil and pepper. Melt remaining butter in skillet until foamy, swirling it around pan to coat evenly. When hot enough that a drop of water sizzles when dropped in, pour in egg mixture. Tip pan so eggs coat skillet evenly. As eggs cook, periodically lift up cooked edges, tilt pan and let uncooked egg run underneath.

When eggs are cooked, but surface is still shiny, place asparagus and mushrooms on one side; slide out of pan, folding side without vegetables over top.

Serve immediately

Dutch Baby Pancakes

This is an excellent dish for breakfast or dinner. Very simple, light, and can be topped with anything. I like frozen cherries cooked in a little Cherry Kiajafa, some sugar and maybe a little cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Keep an eye on them, oven temps can vary a lot and you don't want to burn them but you want to be sure they cool all the way.
