Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons minced shallots
3 cups shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced thin
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh savory, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
10 large eggs
1 cup Fontina cheese, shredded (about 3 ounces)
1 tablespoon chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Farenheit.
  • In a large, nonstick, ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
  • Add shallots, and cook about 2 minutes, until they just start to soften.
  • Add mushrooms, savory, half of the salt and pepper; stir often, until mushrooms release juices- about 5 or 6 minutes.
  • In bowl, whisk eggs until frothy.
  • Stir in cheese and remaining salt and pepper.
  • Pour eggs over mushroom in skillet, tilting pan to spread evenly.
  • Cook without disturbing until about 1/4 inch around the outer edge is set.
  • With a spatula, lift some of the egg mixture from the sides of the pan, tipping pan to allow uncooked egg to flow to the bottom.
  • Place skillet in oven, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • (It's usually sometime between there, so aim for about 18 minutes just to be safe.) Invert frittata onto a large serving plate, cut into wedges, and serve warm.

EASY MUSHROOM AND CHEESE FRITTATA



Easy Mushroom and Cheese Frittata image

Frittata is an Italian version of an omelet that has the vegetables mixed in with the eggs and since it is not folded but served open face, it is easier to handle. It may be baked in oven or cooked on top of stove and served any time of day.

Provided by Mary Jenny

Categories     Breakfast

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 eggs
1/4 cup 2% low-fat milk
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried sage
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil or 2 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, diced
1/2 cup red pepper, diced
8 ounces sliced small mushrooms
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced parsley (optional)
3/4 cup shredded provolone cheese, Swiss or 3/4 cup jarlsberg cheese

Steps:

  • In a large bowl or measuring cup whisk eggs, milk, Parmesan cheese, sage and pepper together until well mixed, set aside. Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
  • In a 10"(25 cm) non-stick skillet heat oil over medium- high heat; sauté onion and red pepper 2-3 minutes or until softened. Add mushrooms and sauté 4-5 minutes or until lightly browned; add garlic and cook 1 minute. Pour egg mixture into skillet mixing lightly to incorporate mushrooms; sprinkle with parsley if desired. Bake in oven about 12-15 minutes or until just set in the centre and no longer moist on top. Sprinkle with cheese and return to oven for 2 minutes to melt cheese. Loosen around the edges with a rubber spatula and slide out onto serving plate. Cut in wedges to serve. Serve hot or at room temperature.
  • Variation: Instead of cooking the frittata in oven it may be cooked on top of stove over medium- low heat; lifting outer edges of omelet to allow uncooked portion to run underneath, then cover and cook until just set. Turn off heat. Sprinkle with cheese and cover to melt cheese.
  • Tip: Substitute 4 eggs and 4 egg whites for the 8 eggs to lower fat.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling later on.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your frittata will taste. Look for shiitake mushrooms that are firm and have a deep, earthy color. Use fresh eggs, milk, and cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • Cook the Mushrooms Properly: Shiitake mushrooms can be tough if they are not cooked properly. Make sure to sauté them until they are softened and browned. This will bring out their flavor and make them more tender.
  • Don't Overcook the Eggs: Frittata should be cooked until the eggs are just set. Overcooking will make them rubbery and tough. Keep an eye on the frittata while it is cooking and remove it from the oven as soon as the eggs are set.
  • Let the Frittata Cool Slightly Before Serving: This will help it to hold its shape when you cut it.

Conclusion:

Shiitake mushroom and cheese frittata is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it can be easily customized to suit your own taste preferences. With a little planning and preparation, you can make a frittata that is sure to impress your friends and family.
