Steps:

  • Soak 1/2 cup stale bread cubes in 1/2 cup milk; mix with 8 beaten eggs. Add 3/4 cup ricotta, 1 teaspoon chopped thyme, and salt and pepper. Saute 1 cup shredded zucchini in an ovenproof nonstick skillet with oil. Add the egg mixture; cook until the bottom sets, then bake at 325 degrees F, 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep your veggies and herbs beforehand: Slicing, dicing, and chopping your vegetables and herbs in advance will save you time and ensure that your frittata cooks evenly.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of vegetables. Some popular options include spinach, kale, mushrooms, zucchini, and bell peppers. You can also add some chopped cooked potatoes or rice for a heartier frittata.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When pouring the egg mixture into the pan, make sure not to overcrowd it. This will help the frittata cook evenly and prevent it from becoming too thick.
  • Cook the frittata over medium heat: Cooking the frittata over medium heat will help it cook evenly without burning. If the heat is too high, the outside of the frittata will cook too quickly while the inside remains uncooked.
  • Flip the frittata halfway through cooking: Once the bottom of the frittata is golden brown, carefully flip it over using a spatula. This will ensure that both sides of the frittata are cooked evenly.
  • Let the frittata cool before serving: Once the frittata is cooked through, let it cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it hold its shape and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

A spring frittata is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover vegetables and herbs, and it can be easily customized to your liking. With its combination of fresh flavors and textures, a spring frittata is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
