SPANISH-STYLE POTATO AND ONION FRITTATA



Spanish-Style Potato and Onion Frittata image

Spain has one of my favorite omelets made from potatoes, cheese and onions called a "tortilla." Not to be confused with a Mexican tortilla, a Spanish tortilla is like the perfect mash-up of a baked potato and scrambled eggs. The Spanish serve it like an appetizer, but I love making it into an omelet. The key is to season every layer with salt and pepper at each stage. Small yellow potatoes are a bit more work to peel and dice, but they're sweeter than larger russet potatoes.

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup (50 grams) grated Parmesan, divided
1 pound (454 grams) yellow potatoes, peeled and cut into small dice
4 tablespoons (60 milliliters) extra virgin olive oil, divided, plus more for garnish
2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup (30 grams) shredded mozzarella or other melting cheese
Sour cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven in broiler mode and place a rack 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30.5 centimeters) below the heating element.
  • Beat the eggs in a bowl and add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper and 1/4 cup (25 grams) of the Parmesan cheese.
  • Place the peeled and diced potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl, then toss with 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of the olive oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high for 6 to 9 minutes total, or until fork tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of olive oil and the butter over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch (25-centimeter) omelet pan. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes to the pan and toss gently so that the potatoes don't break apart. Season the mixture with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Pour the reserved egg mixture into the pan over the potatoes and onions. Shake the pan gently while you lift the edges of the frittata; repeat until the eggs start to set, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn the stove to low and sprinkle the mozzarella and remaining 1/4 cup (25 grams) of Parmesan over the top of the frittata.
  • Once the frittata is mostly set, place the pan under the broiler for a minute or two to lightly brown the cheese. Remove from the heat and let the tortilla rest for at least 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with some sour cream, if desired.

Categories     main-dish

Time 47m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 (7-ounce) potato, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1/2 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 large eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 ounces sliced prosciutto, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
1 baguette, cut into 8 pieces
1/4 cup unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy 9 1/2-inch-diameter skillet over medium heat. Add the potato, onion, and garlic. Season the potato mixture with salt and pepper, to taste. Saute over medium-low heat until the potato is golden and crisp on the outside, tender inside, about 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs, cream, Parmesan, prosciutto, and basil in a medium bowl to blend. Stir the egg mixture into the potato mixture in the skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until the egg mixture is almost set but the top is still loose, about 3 minutes. Place the skillet under the broiler. Broil until the top is set and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from skillet and slide the frittata onto a cutting board. Cut the frittata into 12 wedges.
  • Split open each bread piece. Toast the bread on a grill pan until golden. You can also broil the bread cut side up until golden, about 1 to 2 minutes, keeping a careful watch on the bread since they can easily burn. Butter the cut sides of the toasted bread. Arrange a frittata wedge on each bottom piece of bread. Cover with the bread tops and serve.
