ARTICHOKE HEART FRITTATA



Artichoke Heart Frittata image

You can make this easy Italian frittata with the fresh, tiny artichokes that arrive with spring or, more quickly, with frozen artichoke hearts.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves four to six

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound baby artichokes, trimmed, or one 12-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts
8 eggs
2 tablespoons low-fat milk
Salt, preferably kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons minced Italian parsley, dill, fennel fronds or wild fennel
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan or pecorino

Steps:

  • If using fresh artichokes, steam until tender or boil gently in a pot of generously salted water, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, refresh with cold water and quarter the artichokes. Thaw frozen artichokes as directed, and drain off any liquid in the bowl.
  • Beat the eggs in a medium bowl. Whisk in the milk, about 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a 10-inch, heavy nonstick skillet, and add the artichokes. Cook, stirring often, until golden brown, about five to eight minutes. Add the garlic, and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant. Stir in the herbs, and season with salt and pepper. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with a spatula in your other hand, so that the eggs run underneath during the few minutes of cooking.
  • Turn the heat down to low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet) and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. From time to time, remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the omelet with a wooden spatula, tilting the pan so that the bottom doesn't burn. Instead it should turn a deep golden brown. Meanwhile, heat the broiler.
  • Finish the omelet under the broiler for one to two minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn. (It should brown slightly, and it will puff under the broiler.) Remove from the heat and immediately sprinkle on the Parmesan or pecorino. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.

Ways to make Artichoke Frittata

1. Classic Artichoke Frittata
This recipe includes eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, canned artichokes, onions, and garlic. Sauté the onions and garlic in a skillet until they are golden brown. While the onions are cooking, whisk the eggs, cheese, and cream together in a bowl. Add the cooked onions and garlic to the egg mixture, along with the artichokes, and stir until everything is well mixed. Pour the mixture back into the skillet and cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes, until the eggs are set and the frittata is golden brown on top.
2. Bacon and Artichoke Frittata
This recipe is a delicious and slightly meaty twist on the classic artichoke frittata. It includes eggs, milk, shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon, canned artichokes, and green onions. Whisk the eggs, milk, and cheese together in a bowl. Fold the cooked bacon, artichokes, and sliced green onions into the mixture. Pour the mixture into a lightly greased skillet and cook on low heat until the frittata is cooked through, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Spinach Artichoke Frittata
This recipe includes eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, canned artichoke hearts, thawed frozen spinach, garlic, and shredded cheddar cheese. Beat the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add the artichokes, spinach, and garlic to the beaten eggs, and mix until everything is well combined. Pour the mixture into a skillet that has been coated with cooking spray. Cook on low heat until the frittata is golden brown on both sides, and the eggs are set.

Experiment with different ingredients and create your own version of an artichoke frittata.
Artichoke frittatas are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking with different vegetables, herbs and spices. Whether you are a seasoned cook or a beginner in the kitchen, these valuable tips will help you make an artichoke frittata that is always a hit.

Tip 1: Use high-quality ingredients

The quality of the ingredients you use can make a big difference in the taste and texture of your artichoke frittata. It is important to use fresh, high-quality ingredients, especially when it comes to the eggs and artichokes. Choose organic, free-range eggs if possible, as they will have a richer flavor and a brighter yolk. Fresh artichokes are also important, as they have a sweeter taste than canned or jarred artichokes.

Tip 2: Cook the artichokes properly

Cooking the artichokes properly is crucial to the success of your frittata. If the artichokes are not cooked long enough, they will be tough and difficult to eat. To cook artichokes, start by trimming off the tips of the leaves and cutting off the stem. Then, cut the artichoke in half lengthwise and remove the choke (the fuzzy center) with a spoon. Finally, boil the artichokes in salted water for 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender.

Tip 3: Season the frittata well

To make sure your artichoke frittata is bursting with flavor, it is important to season it well. Start by adding salt and black pepper to the eggs before whisking them. Then, add in any herbs and spices you like, such as thyme, basil, garlic or red pepper flakes. Just be careful not to overdo it with the salt, as the artichokes will also add some saltiness to the dish.

Tip 4: Use a non-stick pan

A non-stick pan is essential when making any type of frittata, as it prevents the eggs from sticking to the bottom and sides of the pan. This makes it easier to flip the frittata over and ensures that it cooks evenly. If you don’t have a non-stick pan, you can use a well-seasoned cast iron pan instead.

Tip 5: Cook the frittata over low heat

Cooking the frittata over low heat is important to prevent it from burning or overcooking. Start by heating a small amount of olive oil in the pan over medium heat. Then, add in the egg mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly browned. Next, use a spatula to gently lift the edges of the frittata and allow the uncooked egg to flow underneath. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the frittata is set and golden brown.

Tip 6: Add cheese for extra flavor

Adding cheese to your artichoke frittata is a great way to add extra flavor and richness to the dish. Parmesan, feta and goat cheese all work well in frittatas, and can be added either to the egg mixture or sprinkled on top of the frittata towards the end of cooking. Just be careful not to overdo it with the cheese, as it can overwhelm the other flavors in the dish.

Tip 7: Serve with a salad or vegetables

To make a complete meal out of your artichoke frittata, serve it with a side salad or some roasted vegetables. This will add some extra nutrition and fiber to the meal, as well as some extra flavor and texture. Spinach, kale, roasted red peppers, and sautéed mushrooms all make delicious accompaniments to frittatas.

Conclusion

Artichoke frittatas are a delicious and nutritious meal that can be enjoyed any time of day. By following these valuable tips, you can make a frittata that is always a hit. Whether you prefer a classic frittata with just artichokes and cheese, or a more creative version with additional vegetables and spices, these tips will help you make a dish that is healthy, flavorful and satisfying.
