EASY VEGETABLE FRITTATA



Easy Vegetable Frittata image

The best frittata has a texture similar to custard. Whisking in a bit of full-fat dairy like cream, half-and-half or even whole milk is essential for the best texture. Also, play it safe when baking the frittata and check it a few minutes before it's supposed to be done. Perfectly cooked frittatas look barely set on top and tremble - like jello - after giving the pan a gentle shake.

Time 40m

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 large eggs
5 tablespoons heavy cream, half-and-half or whole milk
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheese, like Gruyere, cheddar or fontina
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 medium zucchini, sliced into thin coins
1/2 medium onion, sliced
1 medium bell pepper, sliced
1 1/2 cups packed baby spinach
Chopped or torn fresh herbs like parsley, chives or dill

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with cream, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper, and the cheese.
  • Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe 10-inch skillet (non-stick or a well-seasoned cast iron pan are best).
  • Add the zucchini, onions, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring every once and a while until the onions are soft and the zucchini and bell peppers have a little color; about 5 minutes.
  • Season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt then add the spinach. Toss the spinach around the pan until it's ever so slightly wilted and bright green.
  • Turn the heat to low. Give the egg mixture another whisk then pour into the skillet. Shimmy the pan back and forth a bit to distribute the egg around the vegetables.
  • When the edges of the frittata begin to set and turn lighter in color, slide the skillet into the preheated oven; about 1 minute.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the eggs are barely set and the frittata trembles - like jello - when you give the pan a gentle shake. Keep an eye on it as it bakes and check the frittata a few minutes before it's supposed to be done. You are not looking for a brown top, just one that looks cooked and barely set.
  • Serve the frittata hot or cold with fresh herbs on top.

Provided by Elaine Lemm

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Dinner     Lunch     Snack

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
1 small onion (peeled and finely sliced)
2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
9 ounces/250 grams mixed, diced, cooked vegetables (of your choice)
1 cup cabbage (or kale, shredded)
6 large eggs (lightly beaten)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley (finely chopped)
4 ounces/125 grams goat cheese (soft, crumbled)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a 9 or 10-inch frying pan over low heat. Cook the onion for about 5 minutes until soft. Take care not to burn.
  • Add the garlic, and stir, then add the cooked vegetables and cabbage. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Season the beaten eggs with a twist of black pepper and a little salt at the last minute (adding salt before this time can make the frittata tough). Give the eggs a good whisking.
  • Tip the beaten eggs into the cooked vegetables in the frying pan and stir. Add the parsley and stir well.
  • Turn the heat down to low, and cook until the sides and center of the omelet are barely set.
  • Turn the frittata over onto a large plate. Add the remaining olive oil to the pan, then transfer frittata back to the frying pan with the uncooked side downwards.
  • Sprinkle the goat's cheese over and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the frittata is golden and firm. Alternatively, you can transfer the frittata to the broiler and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, and leave to cool slightly. Cut into wedges.
