How to make a delicious frittata recipe
A frittata is an Italian egg dish that resembles a crustless quiche or an open-faced omelette. It is made by whisking eggs with various ingredients such as vegetables, cheeses, herbs, and sometimes meats. The mixture is then cooked in a skillet on the stovetop until the bottom is set, and then it's often finished in the oven to cook the top evenly. Frittatas are versatile and can be customized with a wide range of ingredients, making them a popular choice for a hearty and satisfying breakfast, brunch, or even a quick and easy dinner option.
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup diced vegetables (e.g., spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes)
- 1 cup grated cheese (e.g., cheddar, mozzarella)
- Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley, chives) for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and sauté until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add any other vegetables you'd like (e.g., mushrooms, spinach) and cook until they're tender, usually 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet. Allow it to cook on the stovetop for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over the top of the frittata.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the frittata is set in the center and slightly golden on top.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. You can garnish it with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes
One important thing to note when making a frittata is to make sure your skillet is ovenproof. Since the frittata is finished in the oven, it's crucial that your skillet can withstand oven temperatures. Most non-stick skillets with ovenproof handles should work, but it's essential to double-check to avoid any safety hazards or damaging your cookware. If your skillet isn't ovenproof, you can transfer the partially cooked frittata to an ovenproof dish before baking in the oven.
