Three Cheese Frittata Recipes

THREE CHEESE SALAMI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Whisk eggs and milk together in a large bowl.
• Heat olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Pour 1/2 the egg mixture into the hot oil; arrange salami over egg mixture and sprinkle with parsley. Add 2/3 the Parmesan cheese, 2/3 Romano cheese, and 2/3 the mozzarella cheese over the salami-parsley layer; season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
• Cook egg-cheese mixture until edges of frittata are browned and middle is set, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour the remaining egg mixture over frittata; sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, and mozzarella cheese; season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until frittata has risen to about 3 inches and middle is set, 20 to 25 minutes. Carefully turn frittata onto a cutting board; cut into 2-inch squares using a sharp knife. Arrange squares in a bowl and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.

THREE-CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Beat eggs and cream in large bowl until frothy. Stir in half the cheeses, 1 T. chives, and the pepper.
• Heat broiler.
• Heat oil in 10- to 12-inch ovenproof heavy skillet over medium heat until drop of egg sizzles on contact. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Cook covered over medium heat, without stirring, until edge is set but surface is still wet, 10-12 minutes.
• Sprnkle remaining cheeses evenly over frittata. Broil 6 inches from heat until cheese is melted and edge is lightly puffed, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with 1 t. chives. Serve hot.

THREE PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Heat some olive oil in a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the jalapenos, red peppers, yellow peppers and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 minutes.
• In a bowl, beat the eggs with the oregano and a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour into the skillet. Stir with a heatproof spatula, letting uncooked egg run under the cooked egg and veggies. Scatter the goat cheese, basil, cilantro and parsley over the top.
• Transfer the skillet to the broiler; broil until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Run the spatula around the edge of the frittata to release it from the skillet, then slide the frittata onto a serving plate. Top with avocado slices and cut into servings.

4-CHEESE GARDEN VEGETABLE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Tightly wrap the bottom and sides of two 6-inch round springform pans with aluminum foil and transfer to a baking sheet.
• For the cheese filling: Beat the cream cheese and goat cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, add the chives and parsley and mix until just combined. Cover and chill until firm and cold, at least 1 hour and up to overnight. (You want the cheese to be cold enough so it doesn't seep out the sides when the frittatas are stacked on top of each other).
• For the asparagus frittata: Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water.
• Trim and discard the woody stems from the asparagus. Cut 3 inches off the top of each asparagus spear (measuring from the tip) and set aside. Thinly slice the remaining parts of the stalks. Set aside 1/2 cup and reserve the remaining asparagus for another use.
• Add the 3-inch asparagus pieces to the boiling water and cook until tender but still very bright green, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to immediately transfer them to the ice water to stop the cooking. Remove them to a cutting board and slice each stalk lengthwise down the middle. Reserve for decorating.
• Whisk the heavy cream, Parmesan, mozzarella, dill, mint, eggs, scallions, reserved 1/2 cup asparagus, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Pour into one of the prepared springform pans. Reserve the bowl for the second frittata.
• For the spinach frittata: Whisk the heavy cream, Parmesan, mozzarella, spinach, chives, parsley, eggs, scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in the reserved bowl until well combined. Pour the mixture into the other prepared springform pan and scatter the tomatoes over top.
• Bake both frittatas until they are set but still have a very slight jiggle in the center, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
• To assemble: Release the latches of the springform pans, remove the plates from the bottom of each and place the asparagus frittata on a cake stand or serving platter. Spread 3/4 cup of the cold cheese mixture over top of the frittata. Top with the spinach frittata. Spread the rest of the cheese mixture around the perimeter of the frittatas as if you were frosting a cake. Press the asparagus pieces around the frittatas with the flat sides touching the cheese and the pointed tips facing up to look like grass. (The asparagus should be touching, side by side, so that no cheese is visible.). Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Slice and serve cold.
