POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Pat dry the potatoes and onions.
• In a large, nonstick skillet set over moderate heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil until hot. Add the potatoes and salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and just tender. Transfer to a plate.
• In a bowl, combine the eggs, Locatelli-Romano, and salt and pepper. Add the vegetable mixture and gently stir to combine.
• Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and heat it over moderate heat until hot. Add the vegetable and egg mixture and cook it over moderately low heat until golden brown and set on the underside. Invert a plate over the skillet and flip the frittata onto the plate.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to the skillet and slide the frittata back in, uncooked side down. Cook until completely set.
• Transfer to a plate and cut into wedges. Sprinkle with parsley.

POTATO FRITTATA

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes, quarter them and place them in a pot with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and cook until they are tender, about 25 minutes. Allow them to cool briefly, peel them and slice them.
• Beat the eggs and egg whites with the salt and pepper. Stir in the cheese, herbs and sun-dried tomatoes.
• Heat half the oil in a 12-inch skillet or use two 8- to 9-inch skillets. Nonstick skillets will make this recipe easier to prepare. Spread the potato slices in the oil and cook them until they begin to brown, then turn them so the other side browns lightly. Season them with salt and pepper. Be sure none are sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan or pans and when it is hot, add the egg mixture. Cook over medium heat until the eggs are lightly browned on the bottom. Loosen the eggs around the edges and shake the pan to make sure the frittata is loose in the pan. Flip it over by placing a large plate on the pan, turning both plate and pan over together, then sliding the frittata back into the pan. Cook the frittata another few minutes. Instead of flipping the frittata, the top side of it can be lightly browned under a broiler. Either transfer the frittata to a serving platter or serve it directly from the pan.

Add roasted peppers and olives and combine. Beat the eggs with half-and-half or milk and season them with salt and pepper. (Go easy on the salt because of the olives.) Pour the eggs into the skillet and keep settling them to the bottom of the pan as you would an omelet. When the eggs are firm on the bottom and set, transfer pan to the oven for about 10 minutes until top is golden brown. Cut and serve from the skillet or invert the frittata on to a serving plate.

• Then add the tomatoes and black olives, stirring well to combine with the other ingredients, and cook just until the tomatoes have begun giving up their juice.
• Beat the eggs with the salt, pepper, oregano, and cayenne. When all the vegetables are cooked, pour the eggs over them
• Arrange the tomato slices over the top of the eggs, and sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses over the tomato slices. Cook gently over low heat until the eggs are almost set (they'll be firm around the edges and a bit runny in the middle).
• Slip the pan under the broiler for a minute or two, until the eggs are fully set and the cheese has melted and begun to brown. Cut into wedges and serve.
