Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 yellow onion
1 red onion
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/3 cup chives, snipped
2 teaspoons fresh basil leaves, torn
6 eggs
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Peel and coarsely chop onions. Heath the olive oil in a skillet and saute the onions until slightly golden. Add the parsley, chives and basil, saute a few minutes more, stirring often.
  • Beat the eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Stir the onions and herbs one more time, then distribute evenly in the skillet. Lower the heat as much as possible and cook until the eggs are barely firm on top, 10-15 minutes on very low heat.
  • Turn a large plate upside down over the skillet like a lid and overturn the skillet quickly, dropping the frittata onto the plate. Slide the frittata back into the skillet and brown the other side for a few minutes.
  • Turn the frittata onto a serving plate and cut into wedges just before serving. It may be eaten hot, cool or at room temperature.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 large eggs
1 cup loosely packed chopped herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, basil and tarragon
1/2 cup whole milk
salt & freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, very finely chopped
2 tablespoons extra-dry vermouth
1 small tomatoes, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • Whisk eggs with chopped herbs and whole milk in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium ovenproof nonstick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat. Add onion and saute until it is softened, about 6 minutes.
  • Add vermouth and increase heat to high and cook until evaporated, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to moderate and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet.
  • Pour in the egg mixture. Carefully arrange the tomato slices on top of the egg mixture in a single layer in a pretty circle. Cook eggs without touching, until the edge just begins to set, about 4 minutes.
  • Place skillet in oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until it is set in the center.
  • Let the frittata stand for 5 minutes, then slide it onto a large plate and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pan: A well-seasoned cast iron or nonstick skillet is ideal for making a frittata. The skillet should be large enough to accommodate all of the ingredients in a single layer.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the frittata will be. Use fresh vegetables, herbs, and cheese, and avoid using processed or pre-packaged ingredients.
  • Don't overcook the frittata: The frittata should be cooked until it is just set in the center. Overcooked frittata will be dry and rubbery.
  • Let the frittata cool slightly before serving: This will help the frittata to hold its shape and make it easier to slice.
  • Serve the frittata with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include fresh herbs, shredded cheese, salsa, or guacamole.

Conclusion:

The frittata is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With its endless variations, there is sure to be a frittata recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give the frittata a try!
