Frittata Di Spaghetti Spaghetti Frittata Recipes

SPAGHETTI FRITTATA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon olive oil; toss to coat.
• Heat remaining oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add carrots, onions, and celery; cook and stir about 1 minute. Add peas and bell pepper. Cook until the vegetables have softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the cooked spaghetti; toss to mix evenly.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Slowly pour in beaten eggs. Tilt the pan in all directions so the eggs reach edges of pan. Season with ground black pepper. Cover; cook until bottom has cooked and the upper edges have set, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Remove cover. Place a large plate over skillet and flip it over. Slide the flipped frittata back into skillet to cook the other side, about 4 more minutes.
• Transfer frittata to a warm serving platter; allow to rest 10 minutes.
• Top the frittata with warmed sauce and grated cheese.

FRITTATA DI SPAGHETTI (SPAGHETTI OMELET)

Steps:

• Combine the pasta, eggs and cheese, stirring well. Season.
• Heat half of the butter in a large heavy bottomed frying pan. Pour in the egg mixture, lower the heat and cook for 10 minutes until the eggs are just set but still very soft. Slip a knife around the edge to loosen the omelet, then using a spatula turn the frittata cooked side up on to a plate (patch up the pieces if it breaks).
• Heat the rest of the butter in the pan, slide the frittata back into the pan, soft side down and cook for a few minutes. You can also cook the top side by just dotting with butter and grilling, but I prefer the pan method.
• Cut into wedges and serve.

• Invert a plate larger than the frying pan over the pan and turn out the frittata; Heat the remaining butter and olive oil in the pan, and return the frittata to the pan to brown the other side.
• Shake the pan occasionally to keep the frittata from sticking.
• Rather than turning the frittata, place the pan under the broiler for 5- 8 minutes.
• Invert a serving plate over the frying pan and carefully turn out the frittata; Serve at room temperature, cut in wedges.
• NOTE: This is even better the day after it is made.
