Savory Egg And Potato Frittata 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.

POTATO AND ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes and boil for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat oil in a deep cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini and onion; saute until golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add drained potatoes and stir gently to incorporate.
• Beat eggs in a bowl with oregano, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into the skillet until evenly distributed; stir gently with a fork. Cook until eggs are set, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Transfer skillet into the broiler and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

NAN'S POTATO AND EGG FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Spread potato slices across bottom of the pan and cook, turning once, until golden on both sides. Remove slices from pan and drain.
• When all potato slices have been cooked, return them to the pan. Turn heat to high. Pour on the beaten eggs and season with salt and pepper. Tilt the pan so that the eggs flow to the bottom of the pan. Turn heat to medium low. Cover pan with a plate and flip pan so that frittata is turned out onto plate. Slide the frittata back into the pan with the uncooked side down. Cover and let cook another 2 minutes.
• When frittata is finished cooking, remove it from the pan and drain briefly on paper towels before serving.

• In a bowl, combine the eggs, Locatelli-Romano, and salt and pepper. Add the vegetable mixture and gently stir to combine.
• Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and heat it over moderate heat until hot. Add the vegetable and egg mixture and cook it over moderately low heat until golden brown and set on the underside. Invert a plate over the skillet and flip the frittata onto the plate.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to the skillet and slide the frittata back in, uncooked side down. Cook until completely set.
• Transfer to a plate and cut into wedges. Sprinkle with parsley.

• Sprinkle the cooked potato cubes over the onions and sprinkle with black pepper.
• In a bowl whisk the eggs and whipping cream together with salt and pepper; pour over the onions and potatoes.
• Sprinkle with blue cheese and thyme leaves.
• Cook covered for about 6 minutes or until almost set.
• Place under the broiler for about 1 minute.

POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400ºF. On a large baking sheet mix together sliced potatoes, onions, and olive oil. Arrange potatoes in a single layer potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast for 20 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway through. Remove from oven when potatoes are golden brown. Turn down the oven to 375ºF. Set potatoes aside to cool slightly.
• When the potatoes and onions are cool enough to handle, arrange them in a greased pie plate (see pic in post). Spread half the potatoes and all the onions on the bottom of the pie plate. Arrange remaining potatoes, standing up and overlapping, around the edge to form a "potato crust."
• Whisk together the eggs, ricotta, parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper until smooth. Gently pour over potatoes and onions. If desired, drizzle additional olive oil on top.
• Put frittata back into 375ºF oven for 30 minutes or until middle is set and eggs are cooked through. If crust is becoming overly browned before eggs are cooked, use a pie shield or loosely tent foil around crust. Serve hot or at room temperature.

SAVORY EGG AND POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Bake potato in microwave 4 minutes. Remove skin. Dice into ½ inch cubes.
• In a skillet, brown potato slightly with 2 Tbls butter and season with all "dashes" of seasonings and rosemary and parsley.
• Place in deep dish 10" pie pan or deep 9" x 9" glass baking dish that has been buttered or "Pam-ed" along with the bacon (or meat of your choice). If you double the recipe, use a 9" x 13" glass baking dish.
• Beat eggs (or you can use egg substitute), cheese, milk, salt and pepper together and pour over potatoes and meat.
• Bake in pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. To make sure that the center gets done before the outer edge gets too brown, Pam a small bisquit cutter or something small and metal, and place it in the center of the mixture. This will draw heat to the center so it bakes evenly.
• Serve with sliced cantaloupe and strawberries and mini muffins for breakfast.
• Or serve with a fresh greens salad and Italian bread for dinner or brunch.
