SWEET POTATO AND KALE SPANISH FRITTATA

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup olive oil
1 sweet potato, peeled, halved and sliced into half moons
1/2 onion, sliced thin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 leaves Tuscan kale, chopped
8 large eggs, beaten
1 1/4 cups shredded smoked mozzarella

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler to high.
  • Heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil to the pan and warm. Add the sweet potato, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onions and potatoes are beginning to brown and the potatoes are cooked through, about 8 minutes. Add the kale and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the kale is wilted and tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Season the eggs with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir in 1 cup of the mozzarella. Pour the egg mixture over the potato mixture. Using a rubber spatula, gently stir the mixture, making sure all the potatoes are coated in the egg and the ingredients are evenly distributed. Cook on the stove for about 3 minutes to set the bottom. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella. Place the pan under the broiler and broil until golden brown and set, about 3 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Run a thin knife along the edges and cut into 16 squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SWEET POTATO AND RICOTTA LASAGNA



Sweet Potato and Ricotta Lasagna image

I took this from a lasagna packet and slightly modified - the original called for pumpkin but I wanted a lower GI meal. Try both sometime. Also, you could really take the total weight of veggies and make up whatever mix you felt like. BTW, this is a really filling meal! If anyone freezes this let me know how it works too!

  • Top with 1/3 lasagna sheets, cover with all the ricotta and 1/4 the parmesan.
  • Top with another 1/3 lasagna sheets, cover with other half veggies and 1/4 parmesan.

Tips for Making Sweet Potato with Kale and Ricotta

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes. Look for sweet potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes. Avoid any potatoes that are soft or have bruises.
  • Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Before you cook the sweet potatoes, be sure to wash them thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork. Before you bake the sweet potatoes, pierce them with a fork several times. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender. The baking time will vary depending on the size of the sweet potatoes. However, they are generally done baking when they are soft when pierced with a fork.
  • Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling. Once the sweet potatoes are done baking, let them cool slightly before you handle them. This will help to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes. Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, mash them until they are smooth. You can use a potato masher, a fork, or even a food processor to do this.
  • Add the kale, ricotta cheese, and seasonings. Once the sweet potatoes are mashed, add the kale, ricotta cheese, and seasonings. Stir until everything is well combined.
  • Serve the sweet potato mixture immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is made. However, you can also store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
