Asparagus for breakfast

One of my favorite breakfasts in the spring is asparagus topped with a fried egg.

I trim the bottoms off the asparagus, wash it well, and then cook it in a small amount of water in a covered pan, just until tender.

I fry the egg in butter.

Then I put the asparagus on a plate, squirt a little lemon juice, put the egg on top, salt, pepper and a little grated parmesan.

Good for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
