Tips:
- Use fresh or frozen peas, but ensure they are cooked and tender before adding to the frittata.
- Thoroughly clean the leek to remove any grit, and use only the white and light green parts for a milder flavor.
- Beat the eggs well to incorporate air, which will make your frittata lighter and fluffier.
- Cook the frittata on a medium-low heat to prevent the eggs from becoming rubbery.
- For a golden-brown top, finish the frittata under the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
- Allow the frittata to rest for a few minutes after cooking to make it easier to slice and serve.
- Feel free to substitute other fresh herbs like basil or parsley if you don’t have spearmint on hand.
