Pesto Flavour Frittata Recipes

Steps:

• Set a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat it to 400°F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan, ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
• In a separate bowl, toss the pasta with the pesto or herb sauce.
• Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet (or other nonstick oven-safe pan) over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, then nestle in the pasta.
• Cook, undisturbed, until the frittata is set around the edges but still looks wet on the surface, about 5 minutes. Slide the frittata into the oven and bake until the top is set, about 10 minutes.
• Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature, with more pesto or herb sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, lightly beat eggs. Stir in pesto, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 3/4 cup mozzarella. In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Arrange tomatoes in a single layer on top and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella.
• Bake until puffed and center is just set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes; run a rubber spatula around edge and beneath frittata before transferring to a cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Cook the pasta in boiling salted water following the packet cooking time, before draining. Meanwhile, heat a large ovenproof frying pan with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil. Add the sliced onion, gently frying for 6-7 mins until beginning to soften.
• While frying the onion, cut the asparagus into 5cm pieces, discarding the woody base of each spear. These can now be cooked in boiling salted water for just 2-3 mins until tender. Drain once cooked, tipping them into a large bowl and mixing with the spinach leaves and peas. Pour the cream and beaten eggs over the asparagus, spinach and peas, then stir in the pesto, onion and drained pasta. Mix together well, adding the Parmesan, if using, and seasoning with salt and pepper.
• Reheat the frying pan with 2 tbsp of the olive oil and carefully pour the linguine mixture into the pan. Shake the pan to spread the pasta and vegetables evenly, frying over a medium heat for 2-3 mins to set the base. The frittata can now be finished off in the oven for a further 20-25 mins or until set. Once cooked, olive oil can be drizzled over the top before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F Cook the pasta in boiling salted water following the packet cooking time, before draining. Meanwhile, heat a large ovenproof frying pan with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil. Add the sliced onion, gently frying for 6-7 mins until beginning to soften.

• Reheat the frying pan with a bit more olive oil and carefully pour the linguine mixture into the pan. Shake the pan to spread the pasta and vegetables evenly, frying over a medium heat for 2-3 mins to set the base.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• In a bowl, mix eggs and ricotta with a whisk until homogeneous. Add salt and pepper and set aside.
• In a non sticky skillet ovenproof, soften the onion, garlic and pine nuts in the oil about 4 minutes. Pour the mixture of eggs in the skillet and stir delicately with a spatula for 30 seconds. Sprinkle with basil and cheese (parmigiano). Cook in the oven for 7 to 10 minutes or until the eggs begin to rise. End the cooking under the broiler until the frittata is golden. Serve with a green salad.
