2. Cook the Potatoes:

- Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set them aside.
3. Cook the Broccoli and Scallions:
- In the same skillet, add another 1 tbsp of olive oil.

6. Cook the Frittata:

- Cook on the stovetop over medium-low heat until the edges start to set, about 5-7 minutes.
7. Bake the Frittata:
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake until the frittata is fully set and lightly golden on top, about 12-15 minutes.
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.

- Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
9. Serve:

Tips:

- Ensure that the potatoes are sliced thinly for even cooking and a soft texture inside the frittata.

- Use fresh broccoli for the best flavor and texture. If using frozen, be sure to thaw and drain it well.

- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate some air which will make your frittata light and fluffy.

- Allow the frittata to set slightly before flipping or transferring to the oven to avoid it breaking apart.

- Experiment with different types of cheese like Gruyère or Swiss for an interesting twist.

- Use a non-stick skillet or one well-seasoned with olive oil to prevent sticking and make the frittata easier to handle.
