FRITTATA WITH ZUCCHINI



Frittata with Zucchini image

A Frittata is an Italian way to use up leftover ingredients and to make a quick meal or snack. Unlike an American omelet, they're not usually eaten at breakfast. In fact, they are probably eaten more often as a snack or as a portable sandwich for a road trip or train ride. This one is made with zucchini from the garden; if yours have flowers - throw them in too!

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 medium zucchini (or 2 small zucchinis), diced small
6 eggs
2 tablespoons milk, or water
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Pinch fine sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 to 3 zucchini flowers, cleaned, stamen removed and torn in half, optional
Tuscan bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in an 8- to-10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and zucchini and cook until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the milk. Add the Parmigiano and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir until combined.
  • When the zucchini have softened, remove the pan from the heat and add the zucchini to the eggs. Stir to combine.
  • Add the butter to the same pan and swirl to melt. Add the egg and zucchini mixture and top with the torn zucchini flowers if using. Cover the pan and cook over medium-low heat until the edges of the frittata begin to brown and the center has set and is puffed slightly, about 8 minutes.
  • To serve, turn the frittata out onto a cutting board top-side-up. Slice and eat with Tuscan bread.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh vegetables: Use fresh, in-season zucchini and corn for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Cook the zucchini and corn just until they are tender-crisp, so they retain their vibrant color and flavor.
  • Use a good quality ham: The quality of the ham will greatly impact the flavor of the frittata. Choose a ham that is flavorful and not too salty.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeaten eggs will make the frittata tough. Mix the eggs just until they are combined.
  • Cook the frittata over medium heat: Cooking the frittata over medium heat will help it cook evenly and prevent it from burning.
  • Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing: This will help it hold together better.

Conclusion:

Zucchini corn and ham frittatas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they are also a great way to use up leftover vegetables and ham. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect frittata every time.
