Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons good olive oil, plus extra for greasing the pans
1 1/2 cups chopped leeks, white and light green parts, washed and spun dry
4 ounces sliced Italian prosciutto, coarsely chopped
8 ounces fresh baby spinach
2 1/2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 cups (4 ounces) grated Italian Fontina cheese (6 ounces with rind)
8 extra-large eggs
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Brush a standard 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil, including the top of the pan.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large (12-inch) sauté pan. Add the leeks and sauté for 3 minutes, until tender. Add the prosciutto and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, breaking it up with a fork. Add the spinach, tossing with tongs, then cover the pan and cook for 3 minutes, tossing once while it cooks, until the spinach is all wilted. Off the heat, stir in the basil and lemon juice and set aside for 5 minutes. Divide the mixture with tongs among the 12 muffin cups, leaving any liquid behind. Sprinkle the Fontina evenly on top.
  • In a 4-cup liquid measuring cup, beat the eggs, half-and-half, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together with a fork. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the filling in each cup, filling the muffin cups to the top. Sprinkle each frittata with the Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake the frittatas for 20 to 25 minutes, until puffed and lightly browned on top. If you insert a toothpick in the middle, they should feel firm. Cool for 5 minutes, remove with a small sharp knife onto a serving plate, and serve hot or warm.

MINI VEGETABLE FRITTATAS

I found this among my printed out recipes from last year. I have no idea now where it came from as I had cut it to fit in my folder. They are very easy to make and are great for lunch boxes. They also go well with a salad for a tasty lunch/brunch or supper. **Note I use non stick metal muffin pans which I give a light quick burst of rice bran oil cooking spray, (from a can).
