FRITTATA DI ZUCCHINE (ZUCCHINI FRITTATA)

Over 50 years ago, I was taught to make zucchini frittatas by my grandmother. This is her recipe, which I still use on a regular basis. You can adjust/substitute the herbs to your taste preference to make this recipe "your own". Served with a tossed green salad on the side, it makes a wonderful light dinner. Posted in answer to a request.

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler (the one in your oven, not the BBQ grill).
  • In a small frying pan over medium heat, warm two tablespoons of the olive oil.
  • Add the onion and dried thyme (if using it).
  • Sauté until the onion wilts (about five minutes).
  • Prepare the zucchini by cutting off the stems and blossom ends, cut them in half lengthwise, and then cut them crosswise into thin slices.
  • Add the zucchini, cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally (until tender but not mushy- about 10 to 12 minutes).
  • Just before the zucchini slices are done, add the fresh thyme (if using it) and the basil OR parsley.
  • Place the mixture in a colander to cool and allow excess water to drain out (about ten minutes).
  • In a bowl, beat the eggs lightly with a fork.
  • Beat in the salt, pepper, and cheese.
  • Add the drained cooled zucchini and onion mixture.
  • Pour the remaining two tablespoons olive oil in a flameproof 12-inch skillet or omelet pan and place over medium heat.
  • When it is hot enough to make the eggs sizzle, pour in the egg mixture, making sure the zucchini mixture is distributed evenly.
  • Immediately reduce the heat to low and cook the frittata gently until it is set (about 12-15 minutes).
  • Be careful not to overcook the eggs.
  • To finish cooking, slide the pan under the preheated broiler six inches from the heat until the top is golden (about 1-2 minutes more).
  • Use a spatula to loosen the edges from the pan, slide the frittata out onto a serving plate.
  • Serve warm or cold, cut into wedges.

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Start by crushing some garlic and heating it in some olive oil in a medium nonstick saute pan on the stove. While that is heating up, very thinly slice the zucchini on a mandoline. When the oil and garlic are heated, tear some basil into the pan and add all the sliced zucchini. Cook until the zucchini is tender, but not cooked through, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Blend eggs in a blender with a little bit of milk and some salt and pepper. Blend on the highest speed.
  • Pour the egg mixture into saute pan and let it sit for 1 minute. When there isn't much loose egg left in the pan, grate some Parmesan on top and place pan in the broiler for 1 minute.
  • Take pan out of broiler, let it cool and set in pan for 5 minutes. When cool invert a plate on top of pan and turn over. Slice and serve.

2 small cloves garlic
Olive oil, for sauteing
1 medium zucchini
1/2 bunch basil
8 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

When we travel by car, I make the frittata the night before, stuff it into pita bread in the morning and microwave for a minute or two before I wrap them in a towel so down the road we can enjoy a still-warm breakfast! -Carol Blumenberg, Lehigh Acres, Florida

FRITTATA WITH ZUCCHINI

A Frittata is an Italian way to use up leftover ingredients and to make a quick meal or snack. Unlike an American omelet, they're not usually eaten at breakfast. In fact, they are probably eaten more often as a snack or as a portable sandwich for a road trip or train ride. This one is made with zucchini from the garden; if yours have flowers - throw them in too!

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in an 8- to-10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and zucchini and cook until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the milk. Add the Parmigiano and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir until combined.
  • When the zucchini have softened, remove the pan from the heat and add the zucchini to the eggs. Stir to combine.
  • Add the butter to the same pan and swirl to melt. Add the egg and zucchini mixture and top with the torn zucchini flowers if using. Cover the pan and cook over medium-low heat until the edges of the frittata begin to brown and the center has set and is puffed slightly, about 8 minutes.
  • To serve, turn the frittata out onto a cutting board top-side-up. Slice and eat with Tuscan bread.

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 medium zucchini (or 2 small zucchinis), diced small
6 eggs
2 tablespoons milk, or water
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Pinch fine sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper

ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

Iraqi omelet. The difference is that the omelet is taller, you slice it like a pie, and you cook it in a smaller fry pan. I'm putting in parenthesis how I made this for my taste.

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a small fry pan. (I used a small saucepan.).
  • Add onion; cook on low heat until translucent.
  • Add zucchini, (I only used 1 zucchini) salt and pepper. Do not overcook. Zucchini should still have crunch.
  • In a large bowl whisk eggs (I used 4 eggs ), and salt.
  • Add the zucchini mixture; mix. (I put in eggs then added onion mixture).
  • Add finely diced sage or basil now if using. Add only 1 leaf; don't go crazy.
  • Coat bottom and sides of fry pan with olive oil. (I used Pam after I lifted out veggies, and took out most oil in a sauce pan with a little oil).
  • Add zucchini egg mixture; have on low heat. Keep lifting up omelet and letting it run underneath; when almost dry on top, flip).
  • Cover saucepan with a plate.
  • Here is the hard part.
  • SLOWLY, with the bottom part cooked, flip the mixture onto the plate and slide back into the pan, uncooked side down.
  • Finish cooking.
  • DO NOT BURN YOURSELF TRYING TO DO THIS.
  • I have found a couple of seconds in microwave will set eggs nicely.

GARLIC ZUCCHINI FRITTATA

I love serving foods that both complement and contrast with each. This flavorful egg dish can be made in minutes and easily doubled. Sometimes I use leftover taco meat or chopped ham instead of bacon.-Michelle Krzmarzick, Redondo Beach, California
