Zucchini Scallion Frittata Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat broiler with rack 6 inches from heating element. Melt butter in a 10-inch broilerproof nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add scallions and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Stir in zucchini and cook until tender, 4 to 8 minutes. (This ensures that the vegetables are cooked and won't release extra moisture, which would make the frittata tough and watery.)
• Meanwhile, beat together eggs and milk with a fork (it gives you more speed and agility than a whisk here) until well combined. Stir in basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture into skillet; cook over medium-high, stirring with a spatula to create large curds, until eggs are wet on top but otherwise set throughout, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle with provolone, pressing about half down into eggs. Transfer to oven; broil until puffed and browning in spots and eggs are just set, 1 to 2 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Frittata can be served hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place zucchini in a colander set in the sink, and toss with 1 teaspoon salt; let drain 10 minutes. Press out as much liquid as possible.
• Whisk egg in a large bowl; mix in zucchini, scallions, flour, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper until combined.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook fritters in two batches: Drop six mounds of batter (2 tablespoons each) into skillet; flatten slightly. Cook, turning once, until browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a papertowel-lined plate; sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately, with sour cream.
