LEEK, POTATO & SPINACH FRITTATA



Leek, Potato & Spinach Frittata image

This is such a quick and easy recipe. I often make it for my lunch and (instead of serving it up nice and round) serve it more as a hash - so it fits in my tupperware box! I make this with 2-3 eggs because I serve it more as a hash, but for a full-on frittata you could use as many as 4. If you prefer to have this as a hash then you don't need to bother grilling/broiling it - just mix everything up well and keep everything moving in the pan so it all cooks through properly.

1 large potato
1 leek
1 red onion
3 cups Baby Spinach
3 eggs (lightly beaten)
1 cup cheddar cheese (grated)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat your grill/broiler.
  • Dice the potato and par-boil for approx 5 minutes.
  • While the potato is cooking, chop the leek and onion.
  • Put the leek, onion and par-boiled potato into a frying pan with 1 cal spray (or olive oil if you're not dieting!) and soften everything up for another 5 mins or so.
  • Throw the spinach on top of everything in the pan and press down well so that it starts to wilt.

  • To cook the top through properly, place the pan under the grill for the last 5 minutes to melt the cheese and finish everything off nicely.

POTATO AND LEEK FRITTATA



Potato and Leek Frittata image

I love frittatas cause they can be made several hours in advance and served later in the day, at room temperature - when I think they taste best.

Provided by evelynathens

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs potatoes
3 cups thinly sliced white and pale green part leeks, washed well and drained
2 tablespoons butter
12 large eggs
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup gruyere cheese, coarsely grated (or you can use 1 full cup of either cheese)
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Steam potatoes, covered, for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
  • Let cool until they can be handled.
  • Peel and cut crosswise into thin slices.
  • In a 12 inch non-stick skillet, cook the leek in the butter over moderately-low heat, stirring, for 12-15 minutes, or until very soft.
  • Season to taste.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, ½ cup parmesan, ½ cup gruyere, chives, parsley and season to taste.
  • Whisk until combined well.
  • Stir in leek and potatoes.
  • In the cleaned skillet, heat the oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.
  • Pour in egg mixture, distributing potatoes evenly, and cook, without stirring, for 10-12 minutes, or until edge is set but center is slightly soft.
  • Put a plate, larger than the skillet, over the skillet and 'flip' frittata onto it. Gently slilde frittata back into skillet, now browned-side-up and continue cooking until other side has set, about 4 minutes longer.

Tips:

  • Prep the Ingredients: Before you start cooking, wash and chop the vegetables, and whisk the eggs and milk together in a bowl.
  • Use a Non-Stick Skillet: A non-stick skillet will help prevent the frittata from sticking to the pan and make it easier to flip.
  • Cook the Vegetables until Tender: Make sure the vegetables are cooked until tender before adding the eggs to the skillet. This will help ensure that the frittata is cooked through.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: The eggs should be cooked until just set. Overcooking the eggs will make the frittata dry and tough.
  • Let the Frittata Cool Slightly: Before serving, let the frittata cool slightly so that it is easier to slice and serve.

Conclusion:

This leek, potato, and spinach frittata is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. It is packed with vegetables and protein, and it can be customized to your liking. The tips above will help you make the perfect frittata every time.
