Mushroom And Red Pepper Frittata Food

CHEESY PEPPER AND MUSHROOM FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl until combined; set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, without stirring, until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir, then continue cooking until the liquid evaporates, about 4 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the bell peppers and a pinch each of salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until the peppers are softened and lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and stir once or twice to combine; cook, without stirring, until the edges start setting, about 1 minute. Scatter the cheese curds and scallions on top, then transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the frittata is set and lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the skillet, then invert or slide onto a cutting board. Serve warm or at room temperature.

ASPARAGUS-MUSHROOM FRITTATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, ricotta cheese, lemon juice, salt and pepper. In a 10-in. ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add asparagus, onion, red pepper and mushrooms; cook and stir 6-8 minutes or until onion and pepper are tender., Remove from heat; remove asparagus from skillet. Reserve eight spears; cut remaining asparagus into 2-in. pieces. Return cut asparagus to skillet; stir in egg mixture. Arrange reserved asparagus spears over eggs to resemble spokes of a wheel., Bake, uncovered, 20-25 minutes or until eggs are completely set. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut into wedges.

SPINACH AND RED PEPPER FRITTATA

Steps:

• Steam the spinach above an inch boiling water until just wilted, about two minutes; or wilt in a large frying pan with the water left on the leaves after washing. Remove from the heat, rinse with cold water and squeeze out excess water. Chop fine, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet. Add the bell peppers. Cook, stirring often, until tender, five to eight minutes. Add the garlic and salt to taste, stir for about half a minute, and stir in the chopped spinach and the marjoram. Stir together for a few seconds, then remove from the heat and set aside.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the salt (about 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, milk, spinach and red peppers. Clean and dry the pan, and return to the burner, set on medium-high. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet. Drop a bit of egg into the pan; if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Tilt the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the frittata with a spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
• Turn the heat to low, cover and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. From time to time, remove the lid, tilt the pan, and loosen the bottom of the frittata with a wooden spatula so that it doesn't burn. The bottom should turn a golden color. The eggs should be just about set; cook a few minutes longer if they're not.
• Meanwhile, heat the broiler. Uncover the pan and place under the broiler, not too close to the heat, for one to three minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn (at most, it should brown very slightly and puff under the broiler). Remove from the heat, shake the pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking, and allow it to cool for at least five minutes and for as long as 15 minutes. Loosen the edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large round platter. Cut into wedges or into smaller bite-size diamonds. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature or cold.

EASY MUSHROOM AND CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a large bowl or measuring cup whisk eggs, milk, Parmesan cheese, sage and pepper together until well mixed, set aside. Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
• In a 10"(25 cm) non-stick skillet heat oil over medium- high heat; sauté onion and red pepper 2-3 minutes or until softened.

Add the diced potatoes, sprinkle with salt and pepper and stir to cook for a couple of minutes. Finally, add the asparagus, mushrooms, olives and roasted red peppers and cook, stirring, until everything is hot.
• Make sure all the ingredients are evenly distributed across the bottom of the skillet, then pour in the egg mixture so that it evenly coats everything. Let it sit on the burner for 30 to 45 seconds to set the edges, then put the skillet in the oven. Cook, watching it carefully, until the eggs are set but not very brown on top, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Slide the frittata out of the skillet and onto a cutting board. Sprinkle on the basil and slice into wedges with a long serrated knife.

MUSHROOM AND SPINACH FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy 10 or 12-inch nonstick skillet and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring or tossing often, until they begin to sweat and soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add salt, pepper and the garlic, and stir together until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Add the spinach, a handful at a time and stir until wilted. Turn up the heat and let any excess liquid evaporate from the pan, then remove from the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl (you can do this while the mushrooms are cooking). Stir in salt and pepper to taste, the milk, and the mushroom and spinach mixture. Add the Parmesan if desired.
• Heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat in the skillet until it feels hot when you hold your hand about 1 inch above it. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture, scraping all of it in with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the frittata with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking. Once a few layers of egg have cooked turn the heat down to low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet), and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. From time to time remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the omelet with a spatula, tilting the pan, so that the bottom doesn't burn. It will however turn golden. The eggs should be just about set though there will be a layer on the top that is not.
• Meanwhile, heat the broiler. Uncover the pan and place under the broiler, not too close to the heat, for 1 to 2 minutes, until the top sets, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn (at most, it should brown very slightly and puff under the broiler). Remove from the heat, shake the pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking and allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes and for up to 15. It can be a little runny in the middle if you like it that way. Loosen the edges with a spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large round platter. Cut into wedges. Serve hot, warm, room temperature, or cold.

POTATO-MUSHROOM FRITTATA

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a saucepan. Add water to cover and salt. Bring to a boil and cook, simmering until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and slice them 1/2 inch thick. Set aside.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring often but gently, until they are golden brown. Remove and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet, and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, over high heat, until they start to turn brown. Add the onions, red pepper strips, ham, garlic, pepper and salt to taste. Cook, stirring and shaking the pan, 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
• Meanwhile, break the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Beat well with a fork.
• Wipe the skillet clean. Add the olive oil to the skillet and heat. Add the potatoes, the mushroom mixture, and the basil or parsley. Cook, stirring, over high heat for 2 minutes.
• Beat the egg mixture again, and pour it over the potato-mushroom mixture. Cook, stirring from the bottom, until the eggs start to set, about 2 minutes. Cover and cook over medium heat about 3 minutes or until done.
