Roasted Asparagus with Fried Eggs and Parmesan

Choose the highest quality eggs you can find and cook them lightly, and their bright-orange yolks and creamy texture will stand in for sauce to gild fresh asparagus spears. Here, the vegetable is roasted at a high temperature to bring out a natural nuttiness, which is echoed by the grated Parmigiano that is sprinkled over the top.
