Instructions:
- Peel the potatoes and slice them thinly, about 1/8 inch thick. This will help them cook through quickly and evenly.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium saucepan, bring water to a boil, and add a pinch of salt.
- Add the sliced potatoes and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they start to soften. They should not be fully cooked through, as they will finish cooking in the oven.
- Drain the potatoes and set them aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy whipping cream until well combined.
- Stir in the finely chopped dill.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Gently fold the peas and flaked salmon into the egg mixture.
- Add the partially cooked potato slices, ensuring they are evenly distributed and coated with the egg mixture.
- Heat an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour the egg, salmon, potato, and pea mixture into the skillet, spreading it out evenly.
- Cook on the stovetop for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom starts to set but the top is still runny.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden brown on top. You can test by inserting a knife or toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
- Garnish with additional fresh dill or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.

Salmon, dill and potato frittata FAQ:
The frittata should bake in the preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes until it's fully set and golden brown on top. Check for doneness by inserting a knife or toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
You can substitute heavy whipping cream with half-and-half or whole milk for a lighter option. For a dairy-free alternative, try using coconut milk or a non-dairy cream substitute.
Store any leftover frittata in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, warm it gently in a skillet or the microwave.
The frittata is done when it’s fully set and golden brown on top. A knife or toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean, indicating that the eggs are cooked through.
You can use fresh, cooked, or canned salmon for this recipe. If using fresh salmon, ensure it is properly cooked before adding it to the frittata mixture.
Cooking Tips:
- Pre-cook the potatoes to ensure they are tender and fully cooked in the frittata. You can boil or microwave them for convenience.
- Use fresh dill for the best flavor, but dried dill can be a good substitute if necessary.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to add air and make the frittata light and fluffy.
- Make sure your salmon is cooked and flaked before adding it to the egg mixture to ensure even distribution in the frittata.
- Use a non-stick oven-safe skillet to make transferring the frittata to the oven seamless and to prevent sticking.
- Cook the frittata on the stovetop first to set the bottom before finishing it in the oven to ensure it’s cooked through without being overdone.
