Country Potato Pea And Pancetta Frittata Recipes

HAM AND PEAS FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Whisk together the eggs, milk, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a couple turns of pepper in a large bowl. Add the peas, Swiss cheese and ham and stir to combine.
• Heat the oil in a medium ovensafe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the egg mixture and cook until the edges start to set, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake until the center is set, 15 to 20 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before sliding carefully onto a serving plate and cutting into wedges.

POTATO PANCETTA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium (10-inch) oven-proof omelet pan over medium-low heat, cook the pancetta in the olive oil for 5 to 10 minutes, until browned. Remove the pancetta from the pan with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in the pan (don't wipe it out). Add the potatoes and fry them for 6 to 8 minutes, until cooked through and lightly browned, turning occasionally. Melt the remaining 5 tablespoons of butter in a small dish in the microwave.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a large bowl, then stir in the ricotta, Gruyere, melted butter, and milk. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper and stir into the egg mixture. Add the basil.
• Put the pancetta back into the pan with the potatoes and pour in the egg mixture. Place the pan in the center of the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the frittata is browned and puffed and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve hot.

SPRING GREEN FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. In a small bowl combine the eggs, egg whites, milk, chives and pepper: stir in 2 tablespoons of the cheese.
• In an 8-inch nonstick broiler proof skillet heat oil over medium. Add asparagus and green onions; cook and stir 2 minutes. Add spinach and garlic; cook 30 seconds or just until spinach is wilted.
• Pour egg mixture into skillet; reduce heat to low. Cook, covered, 10 to 12 minutes or until nearly set. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons cheese.
• Place skillet under broiler 4 to 5 inches from heat. Broil 1 minute or just until top is set and cheese is melted. Top with tomato.

POTATO AND PANCETTA PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat and stir in the salt. Add the potatoes and cook until the potatoes are just tender but not fully cooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the water and put on a towel to dry and cool. Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into 1/4-inch slices.
• Meanwhile, cook the pancetta in a nonstick pan over medium heat until most of the fat has rendered out and they become crispy. Drain on a paper towel lined plate.
• Dust a flat work surface with flour and roll out the pizza dough until it is 1/4 of an inch thick.
• Arrange the sliced potatoes on top of the pizza dough so that the entire surface is covered. Sprinkle a pizza pan with cornmeal and put the pizza on the pan. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the potatoes and put in the oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the potatoes start to brown.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and sprinkle with the cooked pancetta, red bell peppers, red pepper flakes and both cheeses. Return the pizza to the oven and cook until all of the cheese has melted and the top of the pizza begins to brown, about 7 more minutes.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and garnish with cracked black pepper and chopped basil.
• Let the pizza sit for a couple of minutes before cutting. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with lime zest. Cut and serve.

FRITTATA WITH POTATOES, PANCETTA AND GRUYERE

Steps:

• Heat oil in 12" non-stick skillet until shimmering. Add pancetta and cook over medium heat until browned on edges, 6-8 minutes. Remove to a bowl with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add onion and potato to fat in skillet and cook until tender, 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Beat eggs and half-and-half. Stir in Gruyere, thyme, salt and pepper.
• Return pancetta to skillet, along with eggs. Stir well. Occasionally pull eggs away from edge of pan and tilt to allow any liquid egg to run under.
• When eggs are about half-set, sprinkle with Parmesan and place into a preheated 400F oven. Eggs are done when puffed and golden, about 10 minutes. Garnish with sour cream and chives.

COUNTRY POTATO, PEA, AND PANCETTA FRITTATA

Add the eggs, season with salt and pepper and cook over medium low heat, occasionally sliding a spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the frittata as it cooks. Cook until just set.
