So, wondering what to do with those tomatoes we did the other day???
Here we are.
One of the best frittatas I've had in awhile.
The Sir gave it an A++.
So did the Big Boy.
He seriously ate about a quarter.
At 18 months.
And the big guy ate over half.
At 27.
:)
So, if you have eaters like me, make a second one.
There won't be leftovers.
Roasted Tomato and Smoked Mozzarella Frittata
from My Father’s Daughter
serves four
2 large shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
Coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
6 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
6 halves (3 whole) slow roasted tomatoes, each quartered
About 6 oz lightly smoked mozzarella, cut into bite sized pieces
2 fresh large basil leaves, roughly torn

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil2 large shallots, peeled and thinly sliced

Freshly ground black pepper
6 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
6 halves (3 whole) slow roasted tomatoes, each quartered
About 6 oz lightly smoked mozzarella, cut into bite sized pieces
2 fresh large basil leaves, roughly torn
Preheat oven to 375*.
Heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Saute the shallots until soft and just barely browned, about 6 minutes. Season with plenty of salt and ground pepper.
Meanwhile, beat the eggs and milk in a mixing bowl. Pour over the shallots. Evenly distribute the tomatoes, cheese, and basil. Let it cook for about 5 minutes, or until just set on the edges (it will still be very runny in the middle). Stick it in the oven for exactly 8 minutes; it should be just set through. Enjoy!
Any suggestions on what can I use if I can't find smoked mozzarella or shallots? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am the queen of substitutions! :) Use any smoked cheese (I've used a gouda) but watch it. If it's a heavier cheese, use less. Remember that mozzarella is pretty mild. And shallots can be replaced with regular onions, sliced very very thin!
ReplyDeleteI ended up finding smoked mozzarella and I sustituted the shallots with green onions, and I forgot the basil. I had to come say that it was still AMAZING!!!!!! Thank you for sharing! :) The whole family loved it! It's a keeper!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Glad you liked it! Hope you find something else you like here too ;)
