Leekfrittata Recipes

MUSHROOM LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. While the oven is heating, mix all the ingredients together in a bowl except the butter. I add about 1/4 tsp of salt and just a pinch of pepper to the eggs.
• Using a non-stick skillet or well seasoned cast iron skillet, heat over medium-high heat and add the butter. When the butter melts, make sure that the whole interior of the pan is coated in the butter.
• Add the egg mixture to the hot pan. Allow it to cook on the stovetop for about 2 minutes or until the butter starts to bubble around the edges and you can see that the eggs are just starting to set.
• Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until set. Add some cheese to the top and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and serve hot. Happy eating!

POTATO-LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add leek and potato, season with salt and pepper, and cook until leek is translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add eggs and ricotta, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Cook, undisturbed, until edges are set, about 2 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until top of frittata is just set, 10 to 13 minutes. Invert or slide frittata onto a plate and cut into 6 wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SALMON LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Whisk the heavy cream, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Gently break up the salmon with a fork in another bowl. Fold the salmon and dill into the egg mixture. Set aside.
• Heat the oil in a medium nonstick ovensafe skillet over medium high. Add the leeks and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and carefully pour in the egg mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula to evenly distribute the leeks. Sprinkle the goat cheese on top.
• Bake until the center of the frittata is just set, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer the frittata with a rubber spatula to a serving platter or cutting board. Garnish with chopped dill, slice and serve.

LEEK, POTATO AND HAM FRITTATA WITH PARMIGIANO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Coat a 12-inch nonstick saute pan with 3/4 cup oil, add the leeks to the pan, season with salt and bring to a medium heat. Cook until the leeks are starting to soften and are very aromatic, 5 to 6 minutes. Toss in the potatoes, season with a little more salt and the crushed red pepper, about 3 minutes. Add the ham and the remaining 1/4 cup of oil. Cook, stirring occasionally to be sure the potatoes do not stick to the bottom of the pan, until the potatoes start to soften, 15 to 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat the eggs with about 2 tablespoons water to a smooth consistency in a bowl, then add a heavy pinch of salt and half the grated cheese and beat together until the eggs and cheese are a smooth, homogeneous mixture.
• Using a colander or mesh strainer, carefully strain out the excess olive oil from the potato-leek mixture and reserve. Return the potato-leek mixture to the pan and stir in the eggs. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the eggs start to cook around the outside edges of the pan. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the eggs are cooked through, about 18 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven. Place a snug fitting lid or a baking sheet on the pan, then hold the handle of the lid, swing the pan and flip the frittata onto the pan lid. Commit to it! It's fun! Slide the frittata onto a plate. You can serve this hot or at room temperature.
• Toss the mixed greens with the red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the reserved potato-leek oil and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Serve with slices of the frittata.
• You gotta break some eggs to make frittata!
