Notes
- For a fluffier frittata, use eggs that are at room temperature.
- If you're using a skillet, make sure it's non-stick or well-greased to prevent sticking.
- When combining the ingredients, be gentle. Overmixing can lead to a dense frittata.
- The frittata is done when it’s puffed up and golden brown on top. Insert a knife into the centre - it should come out clean.
- Using a bit of milk or cream in the egg mixture can make your frittata fluffier. Also, whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air.
- Letting the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing helps it set and makes it easier to cut neat slices.
- For a uniform look, use a serrated knife to cut the frittata.
