Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that your frittata will cook evenly.
- Peel and dice the potato into small cubes.
- Finely chop the scallions.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
- Shred the mozzarella cheese if not pre-shredded.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender, about 10-12 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the chopped scallions and sweet corn. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the scallions are softened and the corn is heated through.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large bowl, whisk the 4 eggs until well beaten.
- Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the skillet.
- Gently stir to ensure that the eggs and vegetables are evenly distributed.
- Cook on the stovetop over medium heat until the edges start to set, about 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and has a golden top.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Slice the frittata into wedges and serve warm.
Tips:
- For a fluffier frittata, beat the eggs thoroughly to incorporate more air.
- Use a non-stick, oven-safe skillet to make the transition from stovetop to oven seamless and prevent sticking.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or herbs for more variety and flavor, such as bell peppers, spinach, or parsley.
- Pre-cook the potatoes until they are tender, either by boiling or microwaving, to ensure they are cooked through in the frittata.
- To test if the frittata is done, insert a knife into the center; if it comes out clean, the frittata is ready.
The Corn, Scallion, and Potato Frittata is a wonderful dish that brings together simple yet flavorful ingredients in a delicious and satisfying manner.
