Persian Herb And Leek Frittata Food

PERSIAN HERB AND LEEK FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a 10" skillet over medium. Cook onion and leek, stirring occasionally, until very soft but not brown, 10-12 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool. Wipe out skillet; set aside.
• Whisk eggs, salt, baking powder, pepper, and turmeric in a large bowl. Using a rubber spatula, mix in onion mixture, cilantro, dill, parsley, and fenugreek. (Egg mixture should look thick and very green.)
• Heat broiler. Heat remaining 3 Tbsp. oil in reserved skillet over medium. Pour in egg mixture; spread evenly across pan with spatula. Cover and cook frittata until bottom is just set, 8-10 minutes. Uncover and broil, watching carefully, until top is set, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly, then slide out onto a platter.

PERSIAN HERB FRITTATA

Steps:

• In a small bowl, soak the barberries in cold water for 20 minutes. Using a sharp knife, finely chop the parsley, cilantro, scallions and romaine lettuce; combine in a large mixing bowl.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine eggs, salt and pepper. Whisk just until frothy. Drain the barberries, making sure to discard any small stones.
• Place an 11-inch skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and heat until shimmering. Add the beaten eggs, barberries and walnuts to the chopped greens. Mix well, and pour into skillet, spreading it evenly. Cover the pan, and cook until set, about 10 minutes.
• Uncover skillet and divide the frittata into four wedges, separating them from one another slightly so that the liquid from the frittata can evaporate. Reduce the heat to low, and cook uncovered until the underside is browned, about 40 minutes.
• Turn the frittata over, one wedge at a time. Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil inside the edge of the skillet and between each wedge. Continue to cook uncovered until the underside is browned and the frittata is compact and crisp on both sides, an additional 40 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature, with yogurt on the side, if desired.

HERBY PERSIAN FRITTATA

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Whisk the eggs together in a large bowl, add the baking powder and turmeric, then season with salt and pepper. Stir in most of the herbs, then add the spring onions, currants and walnuts.
• Drizzle the oil into a small ovenproof, non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Pour in the herby egg mixture and cook for 8-10 mins until the egg is nearly set, then put the frittata under the grill for a final minute until cooked through. Sprinkle over the remaining herbs and the crumbled feta to serve.
