Greens Frittata With Mozzarella And Prosciutto Recipes

PROSCIUTTO-AND FRESH MOZZARELLA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• IN a large bowl, beat the eggs. Beat in the milk, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, parsley, and basil. Season with salt and pepper.
• In an 8" nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the shallots, and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 7 minutes. Add the tomato and prosciutto and cook, stirring, until warm, about 2 minutes. Pour in the eggs and cook until beginning to set on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Poke the mozzarella cubes into the eggs. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake frittata for about 20 minutes, until just firm when lightly pressed.
• Set the skillet over high heat and shake the frittata until releases, about 10 seconds. Plac a large, flat plate over the skillet and carefully invenrt the frittata onto it. Let cool for 5 minutes, then cut into wedges and serve.

MIXED GREENS FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a large broiler-proof nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over moderate heat. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add the greens and cook, stirring often for 7 minutes or until very tender.
• Transfer the greens to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
• In a food processor, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, Parmesan, flour and salt.
• Add the remaining oil to the skillet and heat over moderate heat.
• Add the greens, pour the egg mixture over and cook without stirring for 10 minutes or until the eggs are set around the edges and slightly wobbly in the center.
• Preheat the broiler. Broil the frittata 6 inches from the heat for 1 minute or until the center is just set.

MOSTLY GREENS FRITTATA

Steps:

• Melt butter in an 8-inch cast-iron skillet. Add garlic; cook until soft, 1 minute. Add spinach; heat through. Season whisked eggs with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook, pushing eggs into center to create curds, until almost set, 3 minutes. Sprinkle with Gruyere. Bake at 400 degrees until set and golden, 12 minutes.

GREENS FRITTATA WITH MOZZARELLA AND PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Put the greens in a large mixing bowl. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Toss the greens with your hands to coat the leaves.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and season with salt and pepper. Add the red pepper flakes and parmigiano. Pour the egg mixture over the greens and stir them together.
• Heat a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or 9-inch omelet pan on medium-high. Pour in a film of olive oil and let it heat. Add the frittata mixture and let it cook briskly, lifting the edges with a spatula and tilting the pan to help the bottom set. Reduce the heat to prevent the bottom from over-browning and quickly arrange the sliced mozzarella and prosciutto over the surface. Cook for about 3 minutes.
• Place a large plate over the pan, then carefully invert the frittata onto the plate. Return the pan to the heat, add a touch more olive oil, and slip the frittata back into the pan, uncooked side down, for another 2 minutes. (Alternatively, leave the frittata in the pan and finish under a broiler). Slide the frittata onto a platter. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature, cut into wedges.
