Time 35m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
1 cup sliced scallions (about 6)
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt, divided
2 cups thinly sliced zucchini (about 1 medium)
12 large eggs
1/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup grated provolone (2 1/2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heating element. Melt butter in a 10-inch broilerproof nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add scallions and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in zucchini and cook until tender, 4 to 8 minutes. (This ensures that the vegetables are cooked and won't release extra moisture, which would make the frittata tough and watery.)
  • Meanwhile, beat together eggs and milk with a fork (it gives you more speed and agility than a whisk here) until well combined. Stir in basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into skillet; cook over medium-high, stirring with a spatula to create large curds, until eggs are wet on top but otherwise set throughout, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with provolone, pressing about half down into eggs. Transfer to oven; broil until puffed and browning in spots and eggs are just set, 1 to 2 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Frittata can be served hot or at room temperature.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound small zucchini
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for brushing
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
7 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup fontina or provolone cheese, grated
8 slices country-style bread
Red pepper flakes, to taste, optional
2 vine-ripe tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Trim away the ends of the zucchini, and then cut lengthwise. Toss with 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on baking sheet, cut side up. Broil until lightly browned, then turn and broil on the skin side until the zucchini are just tender. Transfer to a cutting board and slice crosswise about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Stir the zucchini and basil into the beaten eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a 10-inch flameproof nonstick skillet over moderate high heat. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. When skillet is hot, add the egg mixture. Let the eggs cook without stirring until they begin to set, then lift the edges with a spatula and let the uncooked eggs run underneath. Continue cooking until the eggs are mostly cooked but still a little moist on top. Place the skillet under the broiler just until the surface of the frittata no longer moist, about 30 seconds, then sprinkle the cheese on top and broil again until the cheese melts, about 30 seconds longer. Slide the frittata onto a serving plate and let cool to room temperature.
  • Set the oven temperature to 375 degrees F. Brush the bread slices on both sides with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, place on baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned and crisp.
  • Cut the frittata into slices, place on warm slice of toast, place 1/2 slice of tomato on top of frittata, season with salt and pepper and chili flakes to taste, and cover with another piece of toast. Serve.
