Ingredients Needed:
- 6 large eggs
- 60ml heavy cream (or half-and-half, whole milk)
- 120g shredded cheese (Gruyere, cheddar, fontina, goat cheese)
- 240g filling, cut into small pieces
- 15ml olive oil
- 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Handful of fresh herbs (mint, thyme, or green onions)
How To Make Frittata Recipe?
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F), placing the rack in the middle.
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream (or your choice of dairy), and ½ tsp salt until frothy.
- Cook the Fillings: Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add your chosen meat (e.g., bacon or chorizo) and cook until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, cook the vegetables and garlic until softened, then combine them with the cooked meat. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top.
- Add the Egg Mixture: Pour the egg mixture over the fillings and cheese, tilting the pan gently to ensure everything is covered.
- Cook the Frittata on the Stove: Lower the heat to medium and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the edges of the eggs begin to set.
- Finish in the Oven: Carefully transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 5-8 minutes until the custard is set and the top is golden brown. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick or make a shallow cut in the center. If the custard runs, give it a few more minutes; if it holds, it’s done.
- Rest and Serve: Let the frittata cool in the pan for 2 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Recipe Tips:
- Use a non-stick pan so the frittata comes out easily.
- Don’t cook the eggs too long before putting them in the oven; the edges should still be soft.
- Add cheese last so it melts into a crispy, golden layer.
- Try different fillings like vegetables, meats, or herbs for extra flavor.
- Test the frittata in the oven with a toothpick; if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the frittata cool down to room temperature. Then, put it in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- Freeze: Wrap the frittata tightly in plastic wrap or foil and place it in a freezer-safe bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Heat the frittata in a covered pan over medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes until warm.
