Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes.
- Thaw and drain the frozen spinach.
- Slice the mushrooms.
- Mince the garlic.
- Chop the basil leaves.
- Beat the eggs in a medium bowl.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until they start to soften and become lightly golden, stirring occasionally.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
- Add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they begin to soften and release their juices.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add the thawed and drained spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes, mixing well with the other vegetables.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, sour cream, and a dash of salt.
- Stir in the chopped basil leaves and grated parmesan cheese.
- Pour this mixture over the vegetables in the skillet. Stir gently to distribute the vegetables evenly throughout the egg mixture.
- Allow the bottom of the frittata to set on the stove for about 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed, golden brown, and fully set in the center. You can check doneness by inserting a knife into the center; if it comes out clean, the frittata is done.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for a few minutes.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm.
Tips:
- For a smoother and creamier texture, consider using fresh spinach instead of frozen, but be sure to sauté it briefly to remove excess moisture.
- Substitute sweet potatoes with regular potatoes if you prefer a more neutral flavor.
- To make the frittata fluffier, whisk the eggs thoroughly before mixing with other ingredients.
- Use a non-stick, oven-safe skillet to easily transition from stovetop to oven without sticking.
- Top the frittata with some additional fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and flavor before serving.
- Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing to make it easier to serve.
- Feel free to add other vegetables or proteins, such as bell peppers, onions, or ham, to customize the frittata to your taste.
