New Potato Pecorino Frittata Recipes

NEW POTATO & PECORINO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Cook the unpeeled potatoes in boiling salted water for 15-20 minutes until tender when tested with the point of a knife. Allow to cool slightly, then cut into chunky slices.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-based non-stick frying pan big enough to take all the ingredients, about 28cm. Add the onions and cook for 4-5 minutes until soft and beginning to brown.
• Meanwhile whisk together the eggs and chives. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper then add the cheese and whisk again. Heat the grill to moderately hot. Add the potato slices to the onions and then pour over the egg mixture. Cook over a low heat until the edges are beginning to firm up and the frittata is lightly set. This may take up to 10 minutes.
• Place the pan under the grill. Don't place the pan too close to the heat or it will burn on top before the centre is cooked. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the eggs are set and the top is a lovely golden colour. Serve hot or cold. This would be delicious with a mixed leaf and tomato salad.

POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes, quarter them and place them in a pot with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and cook until they are tender, about 25 minutes. Allow them to cool briefly, peel them and slice them.
• Beat the eggs and egg whites with the salt and pepper. Stir in the cheese, herbs and sun-dried tomatoes.
• Heat half the oil in a 12-inch skillet or use two 8- to 9-inch skillets. Nonstick skillets will make this recipe easier to prepare. Spread the potato slices in the oil and cook them until they begin to brown, then turn them so the other side browns lightly. Season them with salt and pepper. Be sure none are sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan or pans and when it is hot, add the egg mixture. Cook over medium heat until the eggs are lightly browned on the bottom. Loosen the eggs around the edges and shake the pan to make sure the frittata is loose in the pan. Flip it over by placing a large plate on the pan, turning both plate and pan over together, then sliding the frittata back into the pan. Cook the frittata another few minutes. Instead of flipping the frittata, the top side of it can be lightly browned under a broiler. Either transfer the frittata to a serving platter or serve it directly from the pan.

POTATO, KALE AND PECORINO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a 10-inch ovenproof and nonstick skillet. Add the potatoes, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and saute until golden brown and tender, about 10 minutes. Remove potatoes and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and add the garlic and kale and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Saute until kale is wilted, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes and mustard; stir to combine. Stir in beaten eggs and cheese. Place the skillet in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until the eggs are cooked through and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Once the frittata is finished, run a knife around the edge of the skillet and gently slide the frittata onto a carving board or serving plate. Garnish with additional pecorino cheese if desired. Slice and serve.

LOBSTER PECORINO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Scrub the potato and prick it in several places with a fork. Place the potato on the oven rack and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, depending on its size. When the potato is soft, remove it from the oven and set aside to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F.
• Set a colander in the bottom of a deep, wide stockpot and fill the stockpot with water to a depth of about 1 1/2 inches. Salt the water generously. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. When the water boils, place the lobster into the colander. Cover the pot, lower the heat to a simmer, and steam the lobster for about 15 minutes. Remove the lobster from the pot and plunge it into cold water to stop the cooking. Let cool completely.
• Once the lobster has cooled, remove the meat and cut it into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
• Without removing its skin, cut the potato in half lengthwise. Cut each half into 1/2-inch-thick half-moon slices.
• Using a whisk or a fork, beat the eggs in a medium bowl until frothy. Beat in the heavy cream.
• Heat 4 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the potato slices and turn the heat to medium-high. Season with salt and pepper. Cook the potatoes, continuously flipping them with a spatula, until browned. Don't worry-the potatoes won't fall apart from all the handling. Watch carefully and don't allow them to burn.
• When the potatoes are nicely browned, add the red onion and corn. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are starting to color. To ensure that the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, run a spatula along the edges and bottom to dislodge any vegetables that adhere to the pan.
• Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter to the pan and allow to melt and begin to sizzle. Add the lobster and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the eggs evenly over the mixture in the pan. Sprinkle with the Pecorino cheese.
• Bake the frittata for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it begins to puff up slightly. It should still be a little runny in the very center. Allow the frittata to stand for 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
