Pairing: Frittata or other egg-based dishes
A frittata is a versatile Italian dish made primarily with eggs, similar to an omelette but thicker and often baked in the oven. It can include a variety of ingredients such as vegetables, cheeses, and meats, making it suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The texture is fluffy, and it’s typically sliced into wedges for serving. Frittatas are celebrated for their rich flavor and can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, making them perfect for gatherings or meal prep.
Recipe
Ingredients
- Eggs (6-8): The base of the dish, providing structure and richness.
- Cheese (1 cup, e.g., feta or cheddar): Adds creaminess and flavor depth.
- Vegetables (1-2 cups, e.g., bell peppers, onions, spinach): Contributes color, nutrition, and texture.
- Meats (optional, e.g., diced ham or bacon): For added flavor and protein.
- Herbs (e.g., parsley or chives): Enhances freshness and aroma.
- Salt and pepper (to taste): Essential for seasoning the dish.
These ingredients are crucial as they create a harmonious blend of flavors and textures, resulting in a satisfying meal.
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Sauté Vegetables: In an oven-safe skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and bell peppers, cooking until softened (about 5 minutes). If using spinach, add it last to wilt it quickly.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cheese, herbs, and any optional meats.
- Combine: Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet, gently stirring to distribute evenly.
- Cook on Stovetop: Let the frittata cook undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes, until the edges begin to set.
- Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden on top.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
