Leek Feta Frittata Food

MUSHROOM LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. While the oven is heating, mix all the ingredients together in a bowl except the butter. I add about 1/4 tsp of salt and just a pinch of pepper to the eggs.
• Using a non-stick skillet or well seasoned cast iron skillet, heat over medium-high heat and add the butter. When the butter melts, make sure that the whole interior of the pan is coated in the butter.
• Add the egg mixture to the hot pan. Allow it to cook on the stovetop for about 2 minutes or until the butter starts to bubble around the edges and you can see that the eggs are just starting to set.
• Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until set. Add some cheese to the top and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and serve hot. Happy eating!

SPINACH AND FETA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the bell pepper directly on a stovetop gas burner over high heat and char on all sides, turning with tongs, about 5 minutes. (If you don't have a gas stove, do this on a baking sheet under the broiler.) Transfer the pepper to a medium bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap and let sit 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions and spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 4 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; remove from the heat. Whisk the eggs, 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs, 3/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the egg mixture and feta to the skillet and stir to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the frittata is set and the top is golden, about 15 minutes.
• While the frittata is cooking, peel off the skin from the roasted red pepper with your fingers. Cut the pepper in half, discard the seeds and slice into strips. Toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Slide the frittata onto a serving plate and cut into wedges. Serve with the roasted pepper.

LEEK AND ASPARAGUS FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Melt butter in heavy broilerproof 10-inch-diameter nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and sauté 4 minutes. Add asparagus and shiitake mushrooms, sprinkle lightly with salt, and sauté until tender, about 6 minutes. Whisk eggs, 3/4 cup Fontina cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in medium bowl. Add egg mixture to skillet; fold gently to combine. Cook until almost set. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Fontina cheese and Parmesan cheese over. Broil until frittata is puffed and cheese begins to turn golden, about 3 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.

TOMATO AND LEEK FRITTATA WITH GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a 10-inch, ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons olive oil over medium. Add 2 cups leeks; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Cover; cook 2 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl (reserve skillet). In another bowl, beat eggs with egg whites; season with salt and pepper. Brush skillet with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Add eggs; sprinkle with vegetables and goat cheese, pushing down slightly. Cook over medium until edges are set, 3 minutes. Transfer to oven; bake 15 to 20 minutes.

LEEK FETA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Grease a 23cm square cake tin and line with baking paper.
• Heat oil in a pan and cook leeks, garlic and red pepper until just soft and lightly browned.
• Cool.
• Combine leek mixture with beaten eggs, cream, cheeses, olives and parsley.
• Mix well.
• Pour mixture into prepared tin and sprinkle top with polenta and extra cheese.
• Cook in a 180 degree C oven about 40 minutes.

SWEET POTATO, LEEK AND FETTA FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat fan forced oven to 180c (356f).
• Whisk eggs with water and herbs; season with pepper and salt; set aside.
• Layer sweet potato, red onion and leeks in a pyrex dish or similar (I find that a small square casserole dish works best) and either microwave or heat in oven until sweet potato is soft.
• Pour over egg mixture, sprinkle crumbled fetta and capsicum over the frittata evenly.
• Bake until set (should be around 10-15 mins).
