Bring a small pot of water to boil , and add 1 tablespoon coarse salt.

When it returns to a boil , add the asparagus and blanch for 1 minute.

Drain and refresh in ice water.

When asparagus is cool , drain and add to onion mixture.

Mix the eggs with the farfel in a large skillet , and cook over medium heat , stirring often , to lightly toast and dry out the farfel.
