Ronnie's Notes

This omelet-like dish is colorful, flavorful and fragrant; a good choice for brunch or Sunday breakfast. And it’s easier to make than an omelet.

Tips: Second Thoughts For a basic frittata, leave out the onion, salmon, and dill and follow the instructions above, adding the eggs when the butter looks foamy. You may also use other ingredients in a frittata: sautéed potatoes, cooked vegetables, crisped ham, bacon or sausage, and grated cheese are just a few examples.

1

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2

Mix the eggs and milk together.

3

Melt the butter over moderate heat in a large skillet.

When the butter looks foamy, add the onion and cook 4– or until onions have wilted and are just beginning to brown.

5

Add the smoked salmon and dill and cook another minute, stirring constantly.

6

Turn the heat to low.

7

Add the egg mixture.

8

When the eggs begin to set at the edges of the pan, stir the mixture gently with a fork, bringing hardened edges toward the center to allow uncooked egg portions to reach the heat at the bottom of the pan.

9

Continue cooking and occasionally stir the eggs in this way for 3–, then cook undisturbed for a few minutes more, until the eggs are set but still moist looking.
