Description

A savory salami frittata with diced potatoes and cheese, baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil for frying
  • 1 1/2 lbs baking potato peeled and diced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan
  • 3 oz sliced hard salami
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 lbs mild goat cheese

Instructions

  1. Prep the Eggs: Start by whisking the eggs in a bowl until they are well combined and frothy. You will know it is ready when you see bubbles forming on the surface. Whisking thoroughly ensures a light and fluffy frittata, so take your time. Avoid over-whisking or you might incorporate too much air.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat a skillet and toss in your diced potatoes. Cook until softened, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with 1/4 tsp salt.
  3. Add the Salami: Stir in the sliced salami and let it cook for a couple of minutes until heated through and slightly crispy. You’ll love the savory scent wafting up.
  4. Mix Everything Together: Pour the whisked eggs over the sautéed potatoes and salami in the skillet. Gently stir everything until evenly distributed.
  5. Cook the Frittata: Let the mixture cook on low heat until the edges start to firm up, about 10 minutes. If it is cooking too quickly, lower the heat to prevent burning.
  6. Broil for Finish: Once the edges are set, pop the skillet under the broiler just until the top is golden and firm to the touch. Keep a close eye on it here, as it can brown quickly.
  7. Cool and Serve: Take the frittata out of the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Avoid slicing too soon, or you might end up with a messy serving.

Notes

  • Storage Tips: Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or air fryer.
  • Expert Tips: Whisk eggs well for a smooth consistency.
  • Dice potatoes small and evenly for proper cooking.
  • If the frittata is not setting completely, cook longer on low heat or cover while cooking.
  • If the top of the frittata burns while cooking, lower the broiler’s heat and adjust distance from the heat source.
  • If the potatoes are too chewy after cooking, ensure they are diced small and sauté until softened.
  • Reheating Instructions: Reheat in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes or in an air fryer until heated through at 350 degrees F for about 5 minutes.
  • Serving Suggestions: Pair with avocado slices and salsa. Offer with a side of fresh fruit or serve as a filling in breakfast burritos.
  • Recipe Variations: Add spinach or cherry tomatoes for an extra veggie boost. Incorporate different herbs for a fresh flavor. Use sweet potatoes instead of baking potatoes for a different taste.
  • Ingredient Notes: For best results, use fresh ingredients. Substitute salami with prosciutto, chorizo, or pepperoni if desired. Adjust cheese types according to preference, using crumbled feta or shredded Gouda if needed.
