Frittata Di Spaghetti (spaghetti Frittata) image

A delicious way to use up left over spaghetti, or it's worth cooking a bit just for this recipe. I leave out the prosciutto for a vegetarian version. From 'Ciao Italia Cookbook' by Mary Ann Esposito

Categories     Breakfast

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 teaspoon olive oil
4 slices prosciutto or 4 slices ham, diced about 1/4 lb
6 large eggs
3 tablespoons parmigiano-reggiano cheese
salt and pepper
1/4 cup basil or 1/4 cup parsley, chopped
2 cups cooked spaghetti
1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese or 1 1/2 cups other cheese, cubed (about 6 oz)
1/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • In a frying pan, saute the prosciutto or ham in the olive oil until crispy; Drain on brown paper or paper towels.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs; Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, salt and pepper, and basil or parsley; Add the spaghetti and mix well, then stir in the mozzarella cheese and proscuitto.
  • In a 9-inch frying pan, heat 2T of the butter and 2T of the olive oil; Add the spaghetti mixture and smooth the top with a spatula; Cook over medium-low heat until the frittata is browned on the bottom and set.
  • Invert a plate larger than the frying pan over the pan and turn out the frittata; Heat the remaining butter and olive oil in the pan, and return the frittata to the pan to brown the other side.
  • Shake the pan occasionally to keep the frittata from sticking.
  • Rather than turning the frittata, place the pan under the broiler for 5- 8 minutes.
  • Invert a serving plate over the frying pan and carefully turn out the frittata; Serve at room temperature, cut in wedges.
  • NOTE: This is even better the day after it is made.
