Frittata di Patate

Frittata di Patate is a classic Italian dish that blends the richness of eggs with tender, savory potatoes, offering a hearty start to your day. This high-protein breakfast is not only satisfying but also easy to prepare, making it perfect for any morning routine.

Ingredients

• Large Eggs - 4
• Potatoes - 200 grams
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 30 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Onion, finely chopped - 1 small
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Fresh parsley, chopped - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly (about 2-3 mm thick).
2. In a non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are tender and lightly golden.
3. Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the potatoes and cook for another 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
4. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.
5. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed potatoes and onions in the skillet, ensuring even distribution.
6. Cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, or until the edges begin to set. You can cover the skillet with a lid to help the top cook evenly.
7. Once the edges are set, carefully flip the frittata using a large plate: place the plate over the skillet, invert it to transfer the frittata to the plate, then slide it back into the skillet to cook the other side for another 5 minutes.
8. Once fully cooked, slide the frittata onto a serving plate, cut into wedges, and serve warm.
