Olive Potato Frittata Recipes

CLASSIC ITALIAN POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Peel and chop the potatoes into 1-inch large cubes.
• In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, boil the potatoes for about 5 min, until just tender.
• In the meantime, in a large bowl whisk the eggs until well combined, add in chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper.
• Drain well the potatoes and add them into the bowl with the eggs. Fold in the cheese (if using) and lightly mix all ingredients.
• Heat a large non-stick skillet with the olive oil over medium-low heat. Pour in the frittata mixture, making sure to distribute the potatoes evenly over the bottom of the pan.
• Cover with a lid and cook for about 5-10 minutes, gently shaking the pan every now and then. When the frittata is easily pulled off from the bottom, is ready to be turned. Using a plate with the same diameter of the frittata, carefully put it on top and flip the frittata on the other side.
• Cook on the other side for a further 2-5 minutes, this time without the lid.
• When the frittata is fully cooked, remove from the pan and slide it gently onto a serving plate, and serve
• Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days.

OLIVE FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a small 6 to 8-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add onion to the hot oil and cook until soft and tender but not caramelized - keep the onion white. Add roasted peppers and olives and combine. Beat the eggs with half-and-half or milk and season them with salt and pepper. (Go easy on the salt because of the olives.) Pour the eggs into the skillet and keep settling them to the bottom of the pan as you would an omelet. When the eggs are firm on the bottom and set, transfer pan to the oven for about 10 minutes until top is golden brown. Cut and serve from the skillet or invert the frittata on to a serving plate.

OLIVE-POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, cook potatoes, onion, and garlic in oil, covered, for 4-5 minutes.
• Lift lid and season with salt and pepper.
• With a large spatula, turn mixture over to cook on the other side, until potatoes are tender (you may need to turn potatoes one additional time).
• While potatoes are cooking, beat eggs in a bowl with oregano and salt.
• Pour the eggs over the potatoes when the potatoes have become tender.
• Sprinkle the top of the eggs with the olives, and cook until mixture almost sets (you may need to run a spatula around the edge and allow uncooked egg to flow beneath).
• Sprinkle frittata with feta and parmesan cheeses.
• Place frittata under the broiler and cook for 1-2 minute or until top is set.
• Cut frittata into wedges and serve hot.

ROSEMARY POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in medium heat-proof skillet over medium-low heat with the clove of crushed garlic. Let the garlic infuse the oil while you thinly slice the potatoes and onion; then remove the garlic. Add the potatoes and onions to the skillet and season with rosemary and salt and pepper, to taste. Raise the heat a little and cook for 6 to 7 minutes. Turn the potato/onion mixture over and cook for 5 minutes more. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and move them around and under the potatoes to settle them. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until golden on top, about 10 to 12 minutes. Scatter the cheese on top, turn the oven off and let sit for another couple of minutes. Remove from the oven and serve.
