Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · hand or regular blender · measuring spoons · nonstick skillet · oven mitts · spatula · tongs
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Trim the woody ends from the asparagus and spread them on a baking sheet.
- Wash, seed, and thinly slice the red bell peppers; add two peppers to the sheet with the asparagus. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
- Roast the vegetables until lightly charred and fork-tender, about 10–12 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add a swirl of oil.
- Gently crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper; cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 4 minutes.
- While the eggs cook, peel and mince the garlic and add it to a blender.
- Add the roasted peppers, sun-dried tomatoes, almonds, oil, vinegar, and paprika to the blender; blend until smooth.
- To serve, divide the asparagus, eggs, and Romesco among plates and top with feta crumbles.
Two tips
- Make the Romesco ahead: blend and refrigerate for up to a day before serving.
- Leftovers keep well in the fridge up to 2 days; reheat gently and serve with a fresh fried egg on top if desired.
