Sunny Sunday.. Recipes and more
What a beautiful sunny Sunday we are having... even though it is 18F outside; too cold for the planned outing... We were going to the NYS ice sculpting Championship in Cooperstown, NY, but it is too cold. Maybe we will catch it next year.
Everyone that knows me knows I LOVE to cook. I think I’ll be sharing some of my better hit or miss recipes here. I made a beautiful Frittata for lunch today. The kids loved it. It wasn't too hard to make and it made a perfect Sunday lunch dish. We usually attend Coffee hour after church where the ids eat cake or cookies and drink lots of juice. SO they aren’t really hungry for lunch. I therefore make something “brunch-ish” that is simple and not too filling. I served it with side of Papaya. It was the just the right portion.
Here is the recipe
Simple Frittata
4 medium potatoes
2 Onions
6 Eggs (beaten)
Half Red Bell
Salt and Pepper to taste
Butter for cooking
Olive Oil
Peel and chop the potatoes into small cubes (whatever size suits your fancy). Rinse the potatoes and dry them on a paper towel. Toss them in about two table spoons of olive oil. Put them in a microwave safe bowl and cook on high for approximately 5 minutes. Toss the potatoes every minute to make sure they cook evenly. Then fry the precooked potatoes to a golden brown in a skillet that won’t stick. I use a well seasoned iron skillet. Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon. Add the onion and pepper mixture to the pan, fry to a golden brown also. Remove from the pan. AT this point I cleaned off the bottom of the pan removing all stuck on potatoes etc. Put about 2 tables spoons butter to pan (mid high), return the onions and potatoes mixture to the pan, then pour the eggs of over the mixture. I picked the side up and let the egg roll under for a couple of minutes (How you’d cook and omelet). Put a tight cover over the skillet and turn the heat to med and cook for 2 more minutes or so until softly set. Sprinkle some vinegar over the eggs and then turn onto a plate. I cut the Frittata into 8 wedges.
The kids and adults loved the frittata. Sorry I am not good with portions I usually eyeball everything. Next time I’ll add bacon bits or chopped ham.
