Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 red bell pepper
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 bunch scallions, sliced
1 5 -ounce package baby spinach
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 large eggs
4 tablespoons whole-wheat breadcrumbs
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the bell pepper directly on a stovetop gas burner over high heat and char on all sides, turning with tongs, about 5 minutes. (If you don't have a gas stove, do this on a baking sheet under the broiler.) Transfer the pepper to a medium bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let sit 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 4 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; remove from the heat. Whisk the eggs, 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the egg mixture and feta to the skillet and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the frittata is set and the top is golden, about 15 minutes.
  • While the frittata is cooking, peel off the skin from the roasted red pepper with your fingers. Cut the pepper in half, discard the seeds and slice into strips. Toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Slide the frittata onto a serving plate and cut into wedges. Serve with the roasted pepper.

SPINACH AND ASPARAGUS FRITTATA

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound spinach, washed and drained with stems removed
2 cloves garlic, minced or mashed
1 pound asparagus, cut into 1-inch pieces
8 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons whipping cream or water
1/4 teaspoon salt
Pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • In a saute pan heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add spinach and garlic and saute until spinach is wilted and much of its liquid has evaporated. In a saucepan bring salted water to a boil. Blanch asparagus and refresh in ice water. Drain and pat dry.
  • In a large bowl beat eggs, cream, salt and pepper. In a large saute pan heat 3 tablespoons oil. Add half of beaten, seasoned eggs. As they begin to set around the edges, add spinach and asparagus and start gently lifting egg mixture from sides of pan and push to center, allowing uncooked mixture to contact pan surface. Add remaining beaten eggs. Continue gently moving the egg mixture to center so it becomes self-leveling.
  • As the frittata loses its runniness, place a large plate over the skillet and quickly invert the entire frittata. Slide it back into the pan so the uncooked side is on the bottom and continue to cook until done. When you insert a wooden toothpick and it comes out clean, it's done.

ASPARAGUS AND HERB FRITTATA



Asparagus and Herb Frittata image

This also makes a beautiful appetizer, cut into diamonds.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 30m

Yield one 10-inch frittata, serving 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 pound asparagus, trimmed
8 extra-large eggs
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons low-fat milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh herbs (as above)
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Steam the asparagus until tender, about 5 minutes. Refresh with cold water, drain and pat dry. Cut into 1/2-inch slices and set aside.
  • Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Beat in the milk, salt, pepper, and herbs. Stir in the asparagus and the Parmesan if using.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a 10-inch heavy nonstick skillet. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. 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 frittata with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. Turn the heat down to low and cover the pan. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, shaking the pan every once in a while, until the frittata is just about set. Meanwhile, light the broiler.
  • If the frittata is not quite set on the top, place under the broiler, about 3 inches from the heat, for 1 minute, watching closely, until just beginning to color on the top. Do not allow the eggs to brown too much or they'll taste bitter. Remove from the heat, allow to sit in the pan for 5 minutes or longer, then carefully slide out onto a platter, or cut in wedges in the pan. Serve warm, room temperature, or cold.
