Semi Dried Tomato And Feta Frittatas Recipes

SEMI-DRIED TOMATO AND FETA FRITTATAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degree C (160 degree C for fan-forced).
• Lightly grease an 8 cup non-stick muffin tray (or 8 of the cups on a 12 cup tray).
• Combine all ingredients, except feta, in a large bowl and mix well.
• Be careful with the salt as both the parmesan and feta can be salty enough, personally I leave it out.
• Divide the mixture among the 8 muffin cups.
• Top each with some crumbled feta.
• Bake for about 25 minutes or until just set in the centre.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

MINI TOMATO AND FETA FRITTATAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C Grease 2 12-hole mini-muffin pans (30 ml capacity) or one 24-hole pan.
• Heat oil to medium high and saute onion and garlic for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, till tender. Set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
• Whisk eggs and sour cream (or ricotta) in a large bowl till well-combined. Add onion mixture, semi-dried tomatoes and feta. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir with fork till well combined.
• Spoon mixture into muffin holes until almost full. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until puffed and golden, then cool in pans for 5 minutes.Turn onto wire rack to cool.
• Top each cooled frittata with 1/2 tsp sour cream (or ricotta/mustard), 1 cherry tomato quarter and a tiny sprinkle of chives. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.

FETA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat a lightly oiled 6-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic until tender. Whisk the eggs, egg substitute and 3 tablespoons feta cheese. Add egg mixture to skillet (mixture should set immediately at edges). Cover and cook until nearly set, 4-6 minutes., Sprinkle with tomato and remaining feta cheese. Cover and cook until eggs are completely set, 2-3 minutes longer. Let stand for 5 minutes. Cut in half; serve with avocado and sour cream.

FRITTATA WITH CHEESE, SUN-DRIED TOMATOES, AND BASIL

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Whisk eggs and cream in large bowl to blend. Stir in feta cheese, tomatoes, onions, basil, salt, and pepper. Melt butter in large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add egg mixture; do not stir. Cook until eggs start to firm and sides and bottom begin to brown, lifting sides occasionally to let uncooked egg run underneath, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with olives and Parmesan cheese. Transfer skillet to broiler and cook until eggs start to puff and brown, about 2 minutes. Using flexible spatula, loosen edges and bottom of frittata. Slide out onto plate. Slice frittata into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.

FETA & SEMI-DRIED TOMATO OMELETTE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a small frying pan, add the eggs and cook, swirling the eggs with a fork as they set. When the eggs are still slightly runny in the middle, scatter over the tomatoes and feta, then fold the omelette in half. Cook for 1 min more before sliding onto a plate. Serve alongside a mixed leaf salad.

SPINACH-FETA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a 10-inch, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until they start to turn translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in potatoes and spinach, and remove from heat. Sprinkle with feta cheese.
• Stir beaten eggs, heavy cream, paprika, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until well blended. Pour egg mixture over the cheese and vegetables.
• Place skillet in the preheated oven and bake until eggs are set and the top is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm.

CAULIFLOWER AND TOMATO FRITTATA WITH FETA

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch skillet, preferably nonstick. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until it begins to smell fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes with liquid, sugar, salt and basil sprig or thyme. Simmer over medium heat, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down to a fragrant, dry sauce, about 20 minutes. Remove basil sprig. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• While sauce is simmering, steam cauliflower 5 to 8 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Add to tomato sauce and break up into small pieces with the back of your spoon. If possible, refrigerate uncovered overnight or for a few hours.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in salt (about 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, tomato sauce with cauliflower, feta, optional olives and herbs.
• Clean and dry skillet and return to heat. Heat remaining olive oil over medium-high heat in the skillet. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl pan to distribute eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up edges of frittata with the spatula in your other hand, to let eggs run underneath during first few minutes of cooking.
• Once a few layers of egg have set, turn heat down to very low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet), and cook 10 to 15 minutes, shaking pan gently every once in a while and lifting up the frittata and tilting the pan to let egg run underneath. Frittata should be just about set, except for the top.
• Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Uncover pan and place under broiler, not too closeto heat, for 1 to 3 minutes, watching very carefully to make sure top doesn't burn (at most, it should brown in spots and puff under the broiler). Remove from heat, shake pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking and allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes and for up to 15. Loosen edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from pan onto a large round platter. Cut into wedges or into smaller bite-size diamonds. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature, or cold.
