Description

A classic frittata with golden edges, soft center, and a crispy bottom, perfect for a quick and impressive meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs (about 330 g)
  • 120 ml (1/2 cup) whole milk
  • 40 g (1/3 cup) finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp) olive oil or 30 g (2 tbsp) unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion (100 g, sliced)
  • 200250 g mixed vegetables (spinach, bell pepper, mushrooms, or zucchini)
  • 15 g (1/4 cup) fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or dill)
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: 100 g cooked potatoes, bacon, or smoked salmon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Whisk together eggs, milk, Parmesan, salt, and pepper, then let sit for 5 minutes.
  2. Heat olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion until translucent, then add vegetables and cook until moisture evaporates.
  3. Add cooked meats or potatoes if using, and season. Scatter half of the herbs over the vegetable mixture.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook undisturbed for 2–3 minutes until edges set.
  5. Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes until the center is just set. Rest for 3 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature eggs and avoid overcrowding the skillet with wet vegetables. Can be made ahead by prepping vegetables and storing them separately.
