Summer Squash Frittata Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to the high broil setting. Set a rack in the oven 3 to 4-inches from the broiler.
• In a medium bowl toss the sliced squash with the oil, rosemary, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Lay the squash in a single layer on a cooling rack set inside a foil lined half sheet pan. Broil until the squash is golden brown on 1 side, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Whisk the eggs, ricotta, and Parmesan together in a medium mixing bowl. Put the squash in a 10-inch nonstick, oven-safe saute pan set over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and stir with a silicone spatula to make sure egg gets under the squash. Cook without stirring until the egg mixture has set on the bottom and begins to set on top, about 4 to 5 minutes. Put the pan under the broiler until lightly browned and puffy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Loosen the frittata from the pan by moving a rubber spatula around the edges. Slide the frittata onto a plate or other serving dish, and cut into 6 servings. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cook the onions, fennel, leeks, garlic, thyme, 1/2 cup of the oil and 2 teaspoons salt in a saute pan over medium heat, stirring all the time, until the vegetables begin to soften. Lower the heat to the lowest setting, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 20 minutes. Turn the heat up to high, and cook, stirring all the time, until the vegetables turn light golden brown. Remove them from the pan, and let sit at room temperature.
• Heat a saute pan over high heat. When quite hot, add 1/4 cup of the remaining oil, then the zucchini; saute it for a minute to get even heat distribution. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and continue to saute until the zucchini is lightly golden brown and cooked through. Remove the zucchini from the pan, and let sit at room temperature.
• Whisk the eggs, Sheba spice, Aleppo chili and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until frothy. Add the feta, Cheddar, Parmesan, chives, cilantro, parsley, chervil, the onion mixture and the cooked zucchini, and briskly stir until everything is well incorporated.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat an 11-inch saute pan over high heat, then add the remaining 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil. Add half the egg mixture to the pan and IMMEDIATELY give 1 or 2 quick saute flips to incorporate the mixture at the bottom of the pan (which is cooking) with the raw on top. Add the rest of the mix, IMMEDIATELY give 2 more quick flips, then flatten out the top of the mixture with a spatula. Continue cooking for about 3 minutes (this will help the frittata have a nice golden-brown top). Transfer the pan to the oven, and bake until golden brown on top and cooked through. If it doesn't brown on top, place the pan under a salamander or broiler until golden brown.
• Let the frittata cool for 2 minutes, then tap on the side of the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen the frittata. Place a cutting board on top of the pan, and quickly invert them both; the frittata should slide out onto the cutting board. Refrigerate the frittata on the cutting board until cold, then slice as desired. Serve with the harissa aioli.
• Process the peppers, lime zest and juice, garlic, caraway, coriander, cumin, Sriracha, salt and paprika in a Vita-Prep or blender to a fine puree. Add the mayonnaise, and process just to combine. Yield: 1 quart.

Steps:

• Place grated squash in a colander and squeeze out all excess water; you should have about 1 cup grated squash. Transfer squash to a bowl. Add onion, flour, egg, baking powder, and salt and stir batter together.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop batter into the hot pan and use the back of a large spoon to flatten fritters to 3 to 4 inches in diameter and to 1/4- to 1/8-inch thickness. Cook until edges are deep brown, about 1 minute. Flip over and cook 30 seconds more. Transfer fritters to a plate lined with a paper towel and sprinkle lightly with salt. Repeat with remaining batter, melting more butter in the pan as needed.
• Serve warm topped with Cheddar cheese, onion, and sour cream.

Add zucchini and chard and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender, about 8 minutes. Add scallions and zucchini blossoms and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour egg mixture into skillet and cook, lifting up cooked egg around edge using a spatula to let as much raw egg as possible flow underneath, until edge is set, about 2 minutes (top and center will still be very loose). Sprinkle cheese evenly over top.
• Broil frittata about 6 inches from heat until set, slightly puffed, and golden, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes.
• Cool frittata 5 minutes, then loosen edge with a clean spatula and slide onto a large plate. Cut into wedges.
