The Spring Vegetable Frittata

  • Author: Misfits Market

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or a mix of cream and half & half)
  • 1/3 cup mixed fresh herbs (like chives, dill, or parsley), minced
  • 3/4 cup cheese of choice (like manchego, cheddar, Parmesan, or gouda), grated
  • Kosher salt and pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup alliums, or a mix of shallots, white onions, yellow onions, red onions, spring onions, scallions, and/or ramps
  • 23 cups spinach leaves or sturdy leafy greens like Swiss chard, kale, or beet greens
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Aleppo pepper, chili flakes, sumac, or zaatar (optional garnish)
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 290 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Prepare non-stick pan with cooking spray or a light wipe of oil.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and cream. Season with salt and pepper and whisk in half of the herb mix and half of the grated cheese. Set aside.
  4. In a skillet, sauté allium mix and spinach/greens in olive oil over medium heat until soft, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Transfer vegetables to oven-safe skillet or pan and distribute evenly over the pan’s surface. Pour in egg mixture. Garnish with remaining herbs and cheese and any desire spice(s).
  6. Carefully place pan in the oven. Bake for 7-10 minutes, then rotate pan 180 degrees, and bake for another 7-10 minutes.  When frittata rises just slightly above the pan, nice and puffy, and the center is cooked through, remove from oven. Cool slightly and serve.
