to taste, sea salt and black pepper
8 large eggs
6 Tbsp. milk or cream
8 spears asparagus, trimmed, blanched and cut into thirds
1 Tbsp. butter

Add mâche, cook and stir for 2-3 minutes until mâche is slightly wilted; season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain any excess liquid and set aside to yield approximately 1 cup cooked mâche.

Whisk together eggs and milk and season with salt and pepper. Add cooked mâche and asparagus. Melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat, add egg mixture, distribute the vegetables evenly throughout, and cook for 1-2 minutes.
