Frittata Di Spaghetti With Sausage And Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 12- to 14-inch nonstick ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke. Add the shallots, mushrooms and thyme and cook until the mushrooms start to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausage starts to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Transfer the mushroom and sausage mixture to a paper towel-lined plate. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.
• Place the pan back on the stove over medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Whisk the eggs in a bowl with the cream. Once the oil in the pan starts to smoke, add the egg mixture to the pan, making sure to swirl the pan as it goes in.
• Set aside some of the mushroom and sausage mixture for garnish. Gently spread the rest of the mushroom and sausage mixture evenly over the top of the uncooked eggs. Sprinkle with the Gruyere and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until puffed and just beginning to color, about 18 minutes.
• Flip the frittata out of the pan onto a cutting board or sheet pan. Garnish the top with dollops of creme fraiche, watercress and the reserved mushroom and sausage mixture.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil to the skillet and increase the heat to medium high. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and rosemary and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Return the sausage to the skillet, then add the cream and 1 cup water; bring to a gentle simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the spaghetti to the skillet and toss with the sauce, adding some of the reserved cooking water to loosen, if needed. Top with shredded Parmesan, if desired.

Steps:

• In a frying pan, saute the prosciutto or ham in the olive oil until crispy; Drain on brown paper or paper towels.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs; Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, salt and pepper, and basil or parsley; Add the spaghetti and mix well, then stir in the mozzarella cheese and proscuitto.
• In a 9-inch frying pan, heat 2T of the butter and 2T of the olive oil; Add the spaghetti mixture and smooth the top with a spatula; Cook over medium-low heat until the frittata is browned on the bottom and set.
• Invert a plate larger than the frying pan over the pan and turn out the frittata; Heat the remaining butter and olive oil in the pan, and return the frittata to the pan to brown the other side.
• Shake the pan occasionally to keep the frittata from sticking.
• Rather than turning the frittata, place the pan under the broiler for 5- 8 minutes.
• Invert a serving plate over the frying pan and carefully turn out the frittata; Serve at room temperature, cut in wedges.
• NOTE: This is even better the day after it is made.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• In a medium skillet, melt butter along with 2 tablespoons of olive oil over moderately high heat. Add the garlic and saute for about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and continue stirring for about 2 minutes. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add the spaghetti in tomato sauce, prosciutto or other dried cured ham product, cream and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Add the lightly beaten eggs and toss the mixture until it is evenly distributed. .
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large ovenproof or cast iron skillet until shimmering. Swirl to coat sides and pour in the frittata mixture, spreading it evenly. Cook over moderately high heat until the frittata is barely set on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan over the top.
• Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until it is firm in the center and cooked through.
• Remove from oven and run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the frittata from the sides. Place a large round plate or platter over the top of the pan and flip the skillet and platter. Use oven mitts as the skillet will be hot. Serve it cut into wedges, hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• If using leftover cooked pasta, chop it up. If using dried pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook pasta until barely tender, somewhat short of where you would normally cook it. Drain, and immediately toss it in a wide bowl with half the butter or oil. Cool it a bit.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put remaining butter or oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, and turn heat to medium-high. If you are using meat, add it, and cook, stirring occasionally until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. (If not using meat, proceed.)
• In large bowl, combine pasta with remaining ingredients, along with salt and pepper (less salt if you are using meat). Pour into skillet, and turn heat to medium-low. Use a spoon if necessary to even out top of frittata. Cook undisturbed until mixture firms up on bottom, then transfer to oven. Bake just until top is set, about 10 minutes. Remove, and serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a medium skillet, melt the butter with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Add the sausage and cook and crumble over medium heat until sausage loses its pinkness, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer this mixture to a large bowl and add the pasta, that is already mixed with the tomato sauce (or unsauced), prosciutto, cream, and a 1/4 cup of the Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add the eggs and stir to combine.
• Heat the remaining olive oil in a clean 10-inch, non-stick ovenproof skillet over medium heat (if the skillet is not ovenproof, wrap the handle tightly in aluminum foil). Add the egg mixture and cook over medium heat until the bottom of eggs is set and a light golden brown color appears. (Do NOT over-brown by using too much heat, too fast!).
• Place the pan into the preheated oven and bake for 7 minutes, or until eggs are set to desired consistency and begin to puff up a bit. Remove from oven and let rest for about 2 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with remaining grated cheese, and warm red sauce and sprinkled with shredded basil leaves, if desired.
