Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 200g broccoli, cut into small florets
- 300g new potatoes, washed and sliced
Other Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 150g ricotta cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the vegetables: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced new potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the broccoli florets and cook for another 5 minutes until all vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper.
- Mix eggs and ricotta: In a bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Gently fold in the ricotta cheese until combined. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
- Combine and bake: Transfer the cooked vegetables into a baking dish or oven-safe skillet, spreading them evenly. Pour the egg and ricotta mixture over the vegetables. Place the dish in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden on top.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature for a delicious meal.
Notes
- You can substitute new potatoes with baby potatoes or fingerling potatoes if preferred.
- For added flavor, sprinkle some grated Parmesan or fresh herbs like parsley or chives before baking.
- This frittata can be served cold, making it convenient for picnics or packed lunches.
- Make sure not to overcook the vegetables so they remain tender but still hold their shape.
