FABULOUS FRITTATA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- For the par-cooked red potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, cover and cook until the skin pierces easily but the center is still firm, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the water and allow to cool slightly before slicing.
- For the roasted red bell pepper: Place 1 red bell pepper skin-side down on a burner of a gas stove over medium-high heat. Turn the pepper as it chars until it's black all over. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and steam for 5 minutes. When the pepper is cool enough to handle, remove the charred skin and the seeds. Cut half of the roasted pepper into slices and reserve the remaining half for another recipe.
- In a medium bowl, add the ricotta cheese, 1 tablespoon of the oil and some salt and pepper.
- Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet set over medium heat. Add the eggs to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with the peppers, potatoes and spinach. Dollop the ricotta cheese evenly over the top. Cover the pan, then transfer to the oven and cook for 20 minutes.
- Cut the frittata into four wedges, and garnish with chives to serve.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the frittata from sticking.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat so that it cooks evenly.
- Don't overcook the frittata, or it will become dry and tough.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before serving so that it has time to set.
- Serve the frittata with a variety of toppings, such as fresh herbs, grated cheese, or roasted vegetables.
Conclusion:
Frittatas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables and meats. With a little creativity, you can create endless frittata variations that will please everyone at the table.
