Ricotta Chive Frittata Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add eggs and chives, season with salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Dollop ricotta over the top. Cook, undisturbed, until edges are set, about 2 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until top of frittata is just set, 10 to 12 minutes. Invert or slide frittata onto a plate or cutting board. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet over high, bring 1 inch of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook until bright green and tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Cut frittata into wedges and serve with asparagus.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler Beat eggs with 3/4 teaspoon salt and white pepper to taste.
• Stir in cheeses, marjoram and garlic.
• Heat oil and butter in 8- or 10-inch skillet.
• Add egg mixture and lower heat.
• Cook until set, about 12 minutes, then brown under broiler.
• When done, slide frittata onto plate.
• Serves 6.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• 2. Coat the bottom of a large ovenproof skillet with the olive oil. Add the onions, marjoram, and salt and pepper to taste and sauté over medium heat until the onions are translucent and very aromatic, 5 to 7 minutes.
• 3. In a bowl combine the eggs, ricotta, and Parmesan and stir until smooth and homogeneous.
• 4. Add the egg mixture to the sautéed onions and stir to incorporate the onions. Cook the frittata on the stovetop until the eggs start to set, then transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until firm.
• 5. Turn the frittata out of the pan onto a large serving plate. Drizzle with olive oil if desired and serve immediately. Or let cool and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a large pot with a steamer insert, bring salted water and a splash of beer to a boil. Steam broccoli until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Keep warm.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and cook onion and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in ricotta cheese, beer, and sour cream until smooth and heated through. Add salt and white pepper. Spoon the sauce over steamed broccoli. Garnish with chives and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut tops of tomatoes and, using small paring knife, remove seeds. In small bowl, combine ricotta, chives, salt & pepper. Using small spoon, fill each tomato with ricotta mixture. Place stuffed tomatoes on baking sheet & bake for 8 minutes or until warmed through. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet and add the bell pepper. Cook, stirring often, until it is tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and salt to taste and cook, stirring often, until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Whisk in the ricotta, salt (about 1/2 teaspoon) and freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir in the chives and red pepper and garlic mixture. Clean and dry the pan and return to the burner, set on medium-high. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan, and if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the frittata with a spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
• Turn the heat down to low, cover and cook 10 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while. From time to time remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the frittata with a wooden or heatproof spatula, tilting the pan, so that the bottom doesn't burn. The eggs should be just about set on the bottom; cook a few minutes longer if they're not.
• Meanwhile, heat the broiler. Uncover the pan and place under the broiler, not too close to the heat, for 1 to 3 minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn (at most, it should brown very slightly and puff under the broiler). Remove from the heat, shake the pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking and allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes and for up to 15. Loosen the edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large round platter. Cut into wedges or into smaller bite-size diamonds. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature or cold

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Line a 20 x 30cm roasting tin with baking parchment. Melt the butter in a frying pan and cook the leeks for 8-10 mins until soft, adding a splash of water if they start to stick, then tip into a bowl. Add the bacon to the pan and fry for 5 mins until crisp. Add to the leeks and leave to cool.
• Add remaining ingredients to the leeks and bacon, mix well and season. Pour into the lined roasting tin and cook for about 20-25 mins until set. Serve cut into squares with salad and crusty bread.

Steps:

• Peel potatoes and place in a 3-quart pot, cover with cold water by 2 inches and bring to a boil over moderately high heat; add salt.
• Simmer until potatoes are fork tender but not falling apart, 20-25 minutes.
• Drain in a colander and when just cool enough to handle, cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and arrange rack in center of oven.
• Heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet (if the handle is not ovenproof, wrap it tightly in aluminum foil) over moderate heat until hot but not smoking.
• Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 2 minutes.
• Whisk together flour, chives, baking powder and pepper in a bowl.
• Whisk together eggs and cheeses in another bowl until well combined; whisk in flour mixture.
• Pour egg mixture over potatoes and bake until firm and puffy, about 45 minutes.
• Let cool 5 minutes.
• Run a small knife around edge of frittata and gently slide onto a platter.
• Serve warm.
