Method
Filling: Snap off woody ends of asparagus. In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook asparagus and green onions, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes.
Stir in tarragon; cook for 1 minute. Transfer to bowl.
In separate bowl, whisk together eggs, salt, pepper and 2 tbsp (25 mL) water just until blended but not frothy.
In 8-inch (20 cm) nonstick skillet, melt 1 tsp (5 mL) of the butter over medium heat. Add one-quarter of the egg mixture; cook until almost set, gently lifting edge with spatula to allow uncooked eggs to flow underneath, about 3 minutes.
Place one-quarter of the vegetable mixture on half of omelette; sprinkle with one-quarter of the cheese. Fold in half; cook for 1 minute. Slide onto plate. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
