Frittata Recipe
Description
The Frittata Recipe begins with whisking eggs, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to create a rich custard base. Asparagus is sautéed until tender, and ham is warmed through for added protein and flavor. The egg mixture is poured over the fillings in a skillet and cooked gently until mostly set, then finished under a hot broiler to create a fluffy, slightly browned surface.
The resulting frittata has a tender, slightly creamy interior with bits of asparagus and ham throughout, highlighted with fresh parsley for a mild herbal note. It is cut into wedges and served immediately while still warm.
Ingredients
- 6 egg large
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 ounce Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3/4 cup asparagus chopped, fresh
- 3/4 cup ham chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler on high.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, black pepper, and salt until well blended. Add the parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
- Melt the butter in a 12 inch non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and cook, stirring frequently, until tender. Add the ham to the skillet and cook 2-3 minutes, until warmed through.
- Pour the eggs into the skillet and stir gently with a rubber spatula. Cook 4-5 minutes, until the eggs have set on the bottom and are starting to set on the top. Sprinkle the parsley over the top of the eggs.
- Move the skillet to the oven and broil 3-4 minutes, until the top is lightly browned and fluffy, and the eggs are cooked through. Cut the frittata into 6 wedges and serve immediately.
