Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Break off the tough bottoms of the asparagus and compost. Cut the tips off of the asparagus and set aside. With a vegetable peeler, shave the asparagus into thin, long strips. Place the strips in a bowl and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a small skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil. When hot, add the green garlic, spring onions and a pinch of salt, and sauté a few minutes until soft.

Place the dough on a sheet pan dusted with cornmeal. If using a pizza stone, follow manufacturer's instructions.

Gently stretch the dough, with lightly floured hands, into a 14-16” circle, and spread sauce to ½” from the edges.

Sprinkle the cheese evenly across dough. Spread the green garlic and spring onion mixture evenly over the cheese. Sprinkle with the tips of the asparagus and some of the shaved asparagus.

Bake until the crust is starting to brown and the cheese is melting, about 8-10 minutes. Crack the eggs into a bowl and gently pour them onto the pizza (alternatively, you can crack them directly onto the pizza). Continue to bake another 5 minutes until the egg whites are set, but the yolks are still runny.  Remove the pizza from the oven. Top with the rest of the raw, shaved asparagus. 

Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
