4 Egg Frittata Recipes

BASIC FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to broil.
• Whisk eggs, water, herbs, salt and pepper in medium bowl. Set aside.
• Lightly spray 10-inch (25 cm) non-stick ovenproof skillet or cast iron pan with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat. Add filling ingredients, sauté or heat, stirring frequently.
• Pour in egg mixture. As eggs set around edge of skillet, using spatula, gently lift cooked portions to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Cook until bottom is set and top is almost set, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle cheese over top. Place skillet under preheated broiler for 2 or 3 minutes to melt cheese and puff up frittata or cover with lid and cook for a couple minutes on stovetop.
• Loosen around edge of frittata. Cut into wedges and serve.

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.

HAM AND EGG FRITTATA

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Beat eggs and milk in a bowl.
• Melt butter in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat; cook and stir potatoes, ham, onion, and garlic in melted butter until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add water if vegetables become dry. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour egg mixture over vegetable mixture. Cook, without stirring, until eggs are slightly browned on the bottom.
• Broil in the preheated oven until eggs are nearly set, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese over eggs and continue broiling until frittata is completely set and cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more.
