Pressure cooker smoked salmon frittata
Report
I love this easy pressure cooker smoked salmon frittata! Takes mere minutes to throw together and is lighter than your usual frittata.

Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 leek small
- 1 zucchini medium
- 120 ml milk 1/2 cup
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 5 tbsp Parmesan Cheese grated
- 3 tbsp cheddar cheese or Gruyere, grated
- 5 medium egg
- 100 g smoked salmon in small strips, 3 1/2oz
- 1/2 tsp dill plus extra dill to garnish, chopped, or parsley
- black pepper freshly ground, to season
Instructions
- Top and tail the leeks, you only want to use the white and light green parts. Slice them thinly. Cut the zucchini (courgette) in quarters lengthwise and then slice thinly.
- Heat the butter and olive oil in your pressure cooker or in a frying pan. Sauté your leeks and courgette (zucchini) until quite soft, 5-7 mins. Leave to cool slightly then use a slotted spoon to transfer to a bowl. Rinse out the pressure cooker.
- Whisk the milk and flour together in a large bowl then add the eggs, 4 tbsp of the Parmesan, cheddar, dill and salt.
- Lightly whisk together to combine, you don’t want to whisk too much or the frittata will puff up.
- Stir in you cooked veggies and half the smoked salmon.
- Carefully pour the egg mixture into a 15cm (6in) cake tin, sprayed with cake release.
- Dot the remaining smoked salmon over the top. I also added some dill fronds because they looked so pretty! Season with freshly ground black pepper.
- Pour 360ml (1 1/2 cups) water into your pressure cooker then lower the dish in using the steamer rack. If your steamer rack hasn’t got handles you will need to fashion a sling using kitchen foil.
- Cover and cook 16 minutes at high pressure, then allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes.
- Release remaining pressure manually and lift the frittata out of the cooker. The frittata may have puffed up a little, like a soufflé, but it will soon settle back down again.
- Preheat the grill (broiler). Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the frittata then place under the grill – not too close in case if puffs up again. Cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
- Leave the frittata to cool for 5 minutes in the tin. If it had puffed up, it will settle back down.
- Run a knife around the edge of the cake tin and carefully invert onto a cooling rack or plate. You will need to invert it again, grilled side up, before serving.
Notes
- Don't overfill your container – I used a 6 in (3 in deep) cake tin. You could use a similarly sized soufflé dish, grease it with butter and dusting with a little grated Parmesan.
- Serve warm or cold, for breakfast/brunch or lunch. Great to bring to the office or a picnic.
