Time 1h55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 ounces pancetta, medium diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
7 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
2 cups Yukon Gold potatoes, 1/2-inch-diced (4 potatoes)
8 extra-large eggs
15 ounces ricotta cheese
3/4 pound Gruyere cheese, grated
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 fresh basil leaves, julienned

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a medium (10-inch) oven-proof omelet pan over medium-low heat, cook the pancetta in the olive oil for 5 to 10 minutes, until browned. Remove the pancetta from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.
Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the pan (don't wipe it out). Add the potatoes and fry them for 6 to 8 minutes, until cooked through and lightly browned, turning occasionally. Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small dish in the microwave.
Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then stir in the ricotta, Gruyere, melted butter, and milk. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper and stir into the egg mixture. Add the basil.
Put the pancetta back into the pan with the potatoes and pour in the egg mixture. Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the frittata is browned and puffed and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve hot.

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 pound cooked potatoes, cut into small chunks
4 thin slices pancetta, about 2 ounces
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
8 egg whites
3 whole eggs
Coarse grained salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan

Steps:

In a medium nonstick pan with an oven proof handle, heat olive oil until hot, but not smoking, add the potatoes, pancetta, and garlic and "fry" until golden on all sides. Add peas.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites with the whole eggs. Add the eggs, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium low heat, occasionally sliding a spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the frittata as it cooks. Cook until just set. Sprinkle with cheese and place under the broiler until the top is golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes.
