SWEET CORN FRITTATA WITH CHERRY TOMATO COMPOTE

Steps:

• Make the compote:
• Heat the oil in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring often, for about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes longer. Pour in the wine and cook until the wine is reduced by about half. Add the basil, salt, and pepper and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes burst and become fragrant, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside the tomatoes in a bowl.
• Make the frittata:
• Position an oven rack about 3 inches from the top and preheat the broiler.
• In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium, heat 1 tablespoon of the cooking fat. Add the diced white part of the scallions and the minced garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the potato and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the potato softens, about 10 minutes. Add the corn and continue to cook for about 2 minutes longer.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, red pepper flakes, and half the feta cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the veggie mixture in the skillet and top with the remainder of the cheese. Stir in the potato mixture and the scallion greens.
• Wipe out the skillet and, over medium-high, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of cooking fat. Cook the frittata, lifting up the cooked egg around the edges with a rubber spatula to let the uncooked eggs flow underneath, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, giving the pan a shake now and again, until the eggs are mostly set but the center is still slightly jiggly, 3 to 5 minutes more.
• Transfer the frittata to the oven and broil until the top is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes (keep a close eye on the frittata, as it can easily burn). Serve topped with the tomato compote.

SOUTHWEST CORN FRITTATA

Cook frittata over low heat until eggs are almost set, about 8 minutes. Uncover skillet; broil frittata until top is set and starting to brown, about 1 minute. Slide frittata onto plate. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro. Cut into wedges and serve.

• In a medium bowl, combine the eggs and basil; set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large oven proof skillet.
• Add the corn, zucchini, and green onions.
• Cook and stir for 3 minutes; add tomatoes and cook uncovered over medium heat about 5 additional minutes or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Pour the egg mixture over vegetables in skillet and cook over medium heat.
• As the mixture sets, run a spatula around edge of skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion runs underneath.
• Continue cooking and lifting edges until egg mixture is almost set, the surface of the frittata will be moist.
• Sprinkle with cheese and place the skillet under broiler 4 to 5 inches from heat.
• Broil 1 to 2 minutes or until the top is set and cheese is melted.
