Steps:
- Place a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 350°F. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10" nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add leeks; cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until softened and all liquid has evaporated, 8-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk eggs, crème fraîche, and parsley in a large bowl; mix in 1/2 cup cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Pour the egg mixture over the mushrooms, shaking the pan to evenly distribute mixture. Cook the frittata, without stirring, until its edges begin to set, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup cheese over eggs and transfer skillet to oven. Bake frittata until golden brown and center is set, 25-30 minutes.
MUSHROOM, LEEK & ARUGULA FRITTATA
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425. In a 9" omelette pan or tarte tatin pan, saute the mushrooms, leeks, and red pepper in olive oil & butter, lightly seasoned with salt & pepper, until vegetables soften. Beat eggs with a pinch of salt, a dash of Tabasco, and half & half. Add the Fontina and arugula and stir to combine well. Pour over the vegetable mixture in pan and let set about two minutes. Sprinkle top with the grated Romano, and bake in preheated oven about 15 minutes, ior until puffed and lightly browned on top. Let sit about 5 minutes before cutting into wedges to serve.
Tips:
- When sautéing the leeks and mushrooms, cook them over medium heat until they are soft and caramelized. This will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor.
- If you don't have a large skillet, you can cook the frittata in two batches. Just make sure to grease the pan well before each batch.
- Use a variety of cheeses in your frittata. This will give it a more complex flavor and texture.
- If you want a more fluffy frittata, beat the eggs and milk together until they are light and airy.
- Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature. It is also delicious cold, so it is a great option for a packed lunch.
