Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, caps cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 small onion (about 6 ounces), halved and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme
2 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt
10 large eggs
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oil in a 9- or 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add mushrooms, onion, and thyme; cook, stirring, until mushrooms and onion are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt; remove skillet from heat.
  • Whisk eggs in a large bowl until frothy. Stir in the ricotta, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Place reserved skillet over medium heat. Immediately pour in egg mixture, and lightly stir to distribute mushrooms and onion evenly. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 2 minutes, drawing cooked egg away from sides with a rubber spatula to let uncooked egg flow underneath. Cook until just starting to set, about 2 minutes more.
  • Transfer skillet to oven. Bake until frittata is just set and top is pale golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve frittata in skillet, or slide onto a serving platter.

I had some trouble getting the frittata to set in the oven. I think I may have overcooked it a bit.

This frittata was a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of shiitake mushrooms, but I loved this frittata. The mushrooms were cooked perfectly and they added a nice earthy flavor.

This frittata was delicious! I used a variety of cheeses, including cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan, and it was so cheesy and flavorful.

This frittata was a hit with my family! The shiitake mushrooms added a delicious umami flavor, and the cheese was melted and gooey. We loved it!
