Oven Roasted Tomato and Mozzarella Frittata image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons dried basil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 large eggs
1/3 cup half-and-half
1 garlic clove, grated
8 ounces small fresh mozzarella balls

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking pan with foil.
  • Toss the tomatoes with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, the dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Arrange the tomatoes on the prepared baking pan cut-side up and roast until they are slightly shrunken and caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, then remove the skins and cut each tomato in half lengthwise.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • Whisk the eggs, half-and-half and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl. Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Grate the garlic over the oil and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the eggs and distribute the tomatoes and the mozzarella evenly. Cook on the stove until the bottom and edges are just starting to set, about 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until just set in the center, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Let stand at least 5 minutes. The frittata can be served warm or at room temperature.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings, serving size 1 wedge

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, sliced thinly into half moons
1 bunch fresh spinach (about 1/2 pound) washed, dried and coarsely chopped (5 cups)
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, reconstituted in boiling water for 10 minutes, chopped
1 large clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups cooked whole-wheat spaghetti tossed with 1/2 cup marinara sauce
1/3 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, separate 5 of the egg whites, discarding the yolks. Add the remaining 5 whole eggs to the bowl with the whites and whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in large oven-proof, nonstick skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, salt and pepper and cook until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute. Add the pasta to the pan and stir to combine. Pour the eggs evenly over the pasta and vegetables. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, until eggs are set on the edges but not in the middle.
  • Preheat the broiler. Sprinkle the top of the frittata with cheese and place under the broiler. Cooke until the top is set and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Be careful not to overcook or the eggs will become tough. Cut into 6 wedges and serve.

STUFFED SPAGHETTI FRITTATA WITH TOMATO & MOZZARELLA



STUFFED SPAGHETTI FRITTATA WITH TOMATO & MOZZARELLA image

Categories     Egg     Pasta     Vegetarian

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 pound spaghetti
salt
3 Tbsp butter
1/3 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
2 Tbsp chopped parsley
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp chopped onion
1/2 cup canned imported Italian plum tomatoes, drained and cut up
1/2 cup mozzarella, preferably buffalo-milk mozzarella, diced very fine
3 eggs
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cook, drain and toss the spaghetti with butter, cheese, and parsley. Make sure the pasta is cooked al dente--more underdone--as it will continue to cook in later stages. Put the olive oil and onion into a small saucepan and turn the heat to medium. Cook and stir the onion until it becomes colored a golden brown, then add the cut-up drained tomatoes and salt. Cook for about 20 minutes until the oil floats free of the tomato. Take off the heat. When the tomatoes have cooled, mix in the diced mozzarella. Tip the pan and spoon off most of the oil. Add the tossed sauced spaghetti, salt and a few grindings of pepper to the beaten egg, mixing thoroughly to distribute the egg evenly over the pasta. Put the 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet, turn the heat on to medium and when the butter foam begins to subside, but before it darkens, but in just half the pasta and egg mixture, spreading it uniformly over the bottom of the pan. Over it, pour the tomato and mozzarella from the saucepan, spreading it evenly, and stopping a little short of the frittata's edge. Pour in the remaining half of the spaghetti and egg mixture and cover the frittata in the pan, spreading it out to the edges. Cook the frittata on top of the stove for 3 to 4 minutes without touching the pan. Then tilt the plan slightly bringing its edge closer to the flame of the burner. Keep the pan in this position for about 1 minute, then rotate it a shade less than a full quarter turn, always keeping it tilted so that its edge is close to the flame. Repeat the procedure until you have come full circle. Take a look at the underside of the frittata, lifting the edge gently with a spatula, to make sure it has formed a fine, golden crust all around; if it has not, cook a little longer where needed. Run the pan under the broiler until the top has formed a lightly colored crust. When ready, loosen the frittata with a spatula, slide it onto a platter, and cut it into serving wedges, like a pie.

PASTA FRITTATA



Pasta Frittata image

This dish is one recipe calling for leftover pasta that is actually worth planning for. It's portable, it's endlessly versatile, and it's practically foolproof. Substitute almost any cheese for the Parmesan (or leave it out altogether) and toss in any cooked vegetable or meat. Make it your own. One last bit of advice from Mr. Bittman: "The key to extreme enjoyment is to make sure that some ends of pasta pieces protrude from the top of the mixture when you put it in the oven. They will become crunchy, giving the leftover pasta yet one more pleasant dimension."

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/4 pound spaghetti, linguine, fettuccine or other long pasta (or about 1/2 pound cooked pasta)
Salt and pepper to taste
4 tablespoons butter or extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup minced pancetta, bacon or prosciutto, optional
6 eggs
1 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • If using leftover cooked pasta, chop it up. If using dried pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook pasta until barely tender, somewhat short of where you would normally cook it. Drain, and immediately toss it in a wide bowl with half the butter or oil. Cool it a bit.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put remaining butter or oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, and turn heat to medium-high. If you are using meat, add it, and cook, stirring occasionally until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. (If not using meat, proceed.)
  • In large bowl, combine pasta with remaining ingredients, along with salt and pepper (less salt if you are using meat). Pour into skillet, and turn heat to medium-low. Use a spoon if necessary to even out top of frittata. Cook undisturbed until mixture firms up on bottom, then transfer to oven. Bake just until top is set, about 10 minutes. Remove, and serve hot or at room temperature.

MEATBALL FRITTATA WITH MOZZARELLA AND TOMATOES



Meatball Frittata with Mozzarella and Tomatoes image

There may be no better way to stretch odds and ends around the kitchen than to make a frittata: there's no crust to fuss with, the eggy matrix can handle almost any savory inclusions, and the frittata itself can be enjoyed hot or at room temperature.

Yield 4 main-course servings or 6 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in half
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
8 eggs
2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano- Reggiano
2 tablespoons slivered basil leaves
1/2 pound cooked meatballs, cut in half if more than 1 inch in diameter
4 ounces mozzarella, preferably fresh, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
Green salad, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • In a large ovenproof and preferably nonstick skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then add the tomatoes and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring once or twice, until the tomato juices are viscous and glossy, about 2 minutes. Pour the tomatoes onto a plate, and use a silicone spatula to scrape any sticky tomato juices onto the plate as well.
  • Whisk the eggs until well blended, then mix in the Parmigiano and basil. Season with salt and pepper. (Start with 3/4 teaspoon salt: you can cook up a spoonful of the mix to check the seasoning.)
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Place the meatballs in the pan, cut sides down if they have been halved. Evenly sprinkle in the tomatoes. Pour in the egg mixture, using a fork to evenly redistribute tomatoes or basil if necessary. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly across the pan. Cook until the edges of the frittata start to set, then use a silicone spatula to pull the cooked egg away from the sides of the pan a bit, letting the raw egg flow behind it. Repeat a few times and cook until the eggs are almost set in the perimeter of the pan, about 5 minutes.
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake until the eggs are just set in the center and the frittata and the top is dappled with toasty brown patches, about 5 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil for 1 minute to help set the top and to foster bubbly, toasted cheese bites.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. The frittata is easiest to remove from the pan after resting 5 minutes. Slide the spatula underneath to loosen, then top with a large plate or pizza pan over the pan and invert the frittata onto it. Flip the frittata one more time onto a serving plate or cutting board so it is right side up. Serve with a green salad.

Tips:

  • Use day-old spaghetti for the best texture in your frittata. Freshly cooked spaghetti will be too soft and mushy.
  • Don't overcook the spaghetti. It should be al dente, with a slight bite to it.
  • Use a variety of fillings in your frittata. The recipe below includes spinach, mushrooms, and tomatoes, but you can also use bell peppers, zucchini, or any other vegetables you like.
  • Make sure the eggs are well-beaten before adding them to the pan. This will help the frittata cook evenly.
  • Cook the frittata over medium heat. This will help it cook through without burning the bottom.
  • Cover the frittata with a lid or foil during the last few minutes of cooking. This will help the top of the frittata cook through.
  • Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.

Conclusion:

The stuffed spaghetti frittata is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover spaghetti. With its creamy, cheesy interior and crispy, golden crust, this frittata is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this stuffed spaghetti frittata a try. You won't be disappointed!
