Potatoes And Onions Patate E Cipolle Recipes

FRITTATA PATATE E CIPOLLE (STOVETOP POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA)

Steps:

• Peel, wash, and cut the potatoes into cubes. Slice the onion.
• In a bowl, combine the eggs, salt, and pepper. Beat with a whisk until well blended. Set aside.
• In saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat, add the cubed potatoes and sliced onions, reserving a few onion slices. Stirring often, saute until softened and lightly crispy, about 5 minutes.
• Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables making sure to cover them all. Reduce the heat to medium/low and cook until the eggs are set around the edges. With a spatula, I poke the egg mixture in different spots, so that the uncooked eggs run down under the bottom.
• When the eggs have almost set on top, add the reserved onion slices and chopped basil leaves. Gently lift the edges of the frittata to check with the spatula to see if the bottom is golden brown.
• At this point, invert a plate big enough to cover the surface over the top of the pan. Then, invert the plate and pan together, so the frittata is on the plate.
• Slide the frittata back into the pan with the cooked side up.
• Cook until the bottom is set, about 2 minutes.
• Turn off heat and invert it again, if you wish, or slide the frittata directly onto a board or a serving dish, then cut into wedges with a pizza cutter.
• Serve immediately, or cool to room temperature before serving. You can pair it with a side salad. We made an arugula and tomato salad, simply dressed with evo oil, salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon.
