SPANISH INSPIRED FRITTATA

Steps:

• Set oven to 325°F.
• Peel potatoes and cut in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into slivers about the thickness of a fat coin.
• Using an oven-safe pan, sauté the oil, potatoes, onion, garlic, parsley, thyme.
• While frying the vegetables, beat eggs with a generous amount of salt and some pepper. Set aside.
• When potatoes are half-way done, add tomato and continue to sauté until potatoes and tomatoes are fully cooked. This means that the juices that the tomatoes give-off are pretty well evaporated. The vegetables should be tender with not too much moisture in the pan, otherwise the eggs won't set as well.
• Lightly press the potato mixture down into the pan to form a flat layer.
• Pour eggs over the potatoes. You can keep the burner on, but the eggs don't really cook at this step.
• Evenly sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of eggs.
• Put pan in the oven and bake until the eggs set, about 20 minutes.
• Cut into slices and serve. Can be served warm, room temperature, and leftovers can be consumed straight out of the fridge!
