Goat Cheese And Red Onion Frittata Sandwich Crunchified With Pepper Relish Food

GOAT CHEESE, PROSCIUTTO AND CARAMELIZED ONION FRITTATA

Steps:

• For the Onions:
• Remove the shoot and base of the onions. Peel off the onion skin and cut the onions from pole to pole.
• Cut the onion into 1/4-inch slices. Add the olive oil to a large saute pan over medium heat, then add the onions and season with the salt.
• Cook until the onions begin to wilt, about 30 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to prevent sticking. Reduce the heat to low and continue to stir every few minutes as the onions reduce in size.
• If necessary, deglaze the pan with balsamic vinegar or water.
• Continue cooking until the onions are dark brown. Turn off the heat and scrape up any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Allow the onions to cool.
• For the Frittata:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, add the eggs, milk, and salt and mix to combine.
• Remove the paper from the prosciutto and stack the slices. Chop the prosciutto into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add the butter to an oven-safe 10-inch pan over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the olive oil and reduce the heat to medium-low.
• Pour the egg mixture into the pan. When the eggs start to set, about 10 minutes, add the Parmesan and prosciutto. Stir gently and dot the top with the goat cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the frittata is set and the goat cheese is melted, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the sides of the pan. Slide it onto a cutting board and cut into wedges. Arrange the wedges on a serving platter and top with caramelized onions and thyme leaves before serving.

GOAT CHEESE AND RED ONION FRITTATA SANDWICH CRUNCHIFIED WITH PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the pancetta on a baking sheet, leaving a few inches of space between slices, and sprinkle with pepper. Bake until crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the oil in an 8-inch nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds longer. Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Whisk in the goat cheese and herbs. Add the egg mixture to the pan with the onions and garlic, and stir just until soft curds begin to form. Sprinkle with some salt. Transfer the pan to the broiler. Broil until the frittata is lightly golden brown and just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Invert onto a platter and let cool slightly or to room temperature, then cut into 4 pieces to fit the rolls.
• Spread some hot pepper relish on the bottoms of the rolls. Top with a piece of frittata, 2 slices of pancetta, some arugula, and the roll tops.

ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Place the whole peppers on a sheet pan and place in the oven for 30 to 40 minutes, until the skins are completely wrinkled and the peppers are charred, turning them twice during roasting. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Set aside for 30 minutes, or until the peppers are cool enough to handle.
• Meanwhile, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Remove the stem from each pepper and cut them in quarters. Remove the peels and seeds and place the peppers in a bowl along with any juices that have collected. Discard the stems, peels, and seeds. Pour the oil and vinegar mixture over the peppers. Stir in the capers. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread the bottom half of the loaf with the goat cheese. Add a layer of peppers and then a layer of basil leaves. Separate the onions into rings and spread out on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with the top half of the ciabatta and cut into individual servings.

GOAT CHEESE AND RED PEPPER FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in large oven-proof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots, red pepper, oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallots and peppers are soft, 7 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl and cool; don't wash the skillet.
• Beat the eggs, heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Stir in the shallot mixture. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in the nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and spread the vegetables evenly throughout the pan. As the eggs set, lift the edges to allow the liquid egg mixture to run underneath. Cook until the eggs are mostly set but the center is still a little runny, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Sprinkle the Parmesan and goat cheese over the top and broil until the top is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Carefully remove the skillet from broiler and loosen the edges of frittata. Cool for 10 minutes in the skillet, then serve slices from the pan or slide onto a serving platter, slice and serve.

GOAT'S CHEESE & CARAMELISED ONION FRITTATA WITH A LEMONY GREEN SALAD

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Put the oil and onions in a medium-to-large ovenproof non-stick frying pan and sweat on a low-medium heat with the lid on for about 10 mins, or until they begin to soften and brown a little at the edges. Reduce heat to low, add the honey, stir well, then leave to bubble for 1 min or so. Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork, then add some black pepper.
• Pour the eggs into the pan and cook for 5-6 mins until almost set. Break the goat's cheese into large chunks and dot over the top. Place the frittata under the hot grill for 3 mins, then shake to check that the egg is set firm and the cheese is soft and bubbling. Pop it back under the grill for 1 min or so more if needed.
• Mix the salad leaves and beetroot in a large bowl. Dress with the lemon juice and toss. Cut the frittata into quarters - cool then chill half for Frittata and salad (see 'goes well with'). Serve the rest warm with the salad on the side.

CARAMELIZED ONION, PANCETTA AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• In 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat 1 teaspoon butter and the oil over medium heat until butter is melted. Cook onions in butter mixture 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft. Add pancetta; cook until crisp. Drain all but 1 tablespoon drippings from skillet; add 2 tablespoons butter to skillet.
• In medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, salt and pepper with fork or wire whisk until well mixed; pour over pancetta mixture in hot skillet. Sprinkle 1/2 cup goat cheese over egg mixture. As mixture begins to set at bottom and side, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so that thin, uncooked portion can flow to bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook 3 minutes or until eggs are thickened but still moist; remove from heat. Sprinkle remaining goat cheese and the Parmesan cheese over top of egg mixture.
• Set oven control to broil. Broil with top of skillet 6 inches from heat 1 to 2 minutes or until eggs are set and top is just beginning to brown. To serve, cut into 8 wedges.
