I like my frittatas thin like a thin-crust pizza. Of course, if you prefer yours thicker you could add more eggs. Broiling the cheese adds a nice crunch and burst of flavour.
- 1 cup egg whites
- 2 tbsp water or milk
- 3 tbsp half and half
- 1 tsp butter or oil
- 1 medium leek, finely chopped
- 5 baby tomatoes, quartered
- 1 tbsp capers
- 2 cups spinach
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 tsp or few dashes chipotle tabasco sauce
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- salt
- pepper
What to do
- Ensure oven rack is about 4 inches from top broil element. Turn oven to broil.
- In mixing bowl, lightly whisk eggs, water (or milk), garlic, tabasco sauce, salt and peppper. Set aside.
- Using a 10-12 inch sautee pan on medium heat, melt butter and add leek, tomato, capers, and spinach. Sautee for 2-4 minutes.
- Add egg mixture.
- Cook for another 2 or 3 minutes, stirring from bottom and sides a few times. Eggs will still be wet on top but set on the bottom.
- Sprinkle parmesan on top of eggs. Put pan in oven. You must watch your eggs to prevent burning! Idealy, the cheese will melt and start to brown. This may take 3 or 4 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let sit for a few minutes.
- Cut in wedges like a pizza and serve!
Oh, this looks so healthy and delectable! YUM!
