Sliced Frittata with Picante Salsa
Special Twist:
Serve on a fried flour tortilla:
Heat enough olive oil to cover
the bottom of an 8-inch sauté pan.
Add a tortilla to hot oil and cook
until desired degree of color is
achieved.
Turn tortilla over and cook the
other side.
Blot excess oil from tortilla and serve.
Ingredients:
6 Eggs
3/4 TBS Fresh basil-Chopped
3/4 TBS Fresh thyme-Chopped
3/4 TBS Fresh cilantro-Chopped
1/4 Cup Parmesan cheese-Freshly grated
3 TBS Olive oil
1 Jar (16 oz-wt) Traditional Picante Salsa
(or 2 cups of your own fresh salsa)
Directions:
Break the eggs in a bowl and beat them
slightly with a fork.
Beat in the basil, thyme, cilantro and
Parmesan cheese.
Season with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in large nonstick frying pan.
Wait until oil is hot but not smoking
before adding the frittata batter.
Cook, without stirring until the frittata
is puffed and golden brown underneath.
Take a large plate, place it upside down
over the pan, holding it firmly with oven
mitts, turn the pan and the frittata over
onto it.
Slide the frittata back into the pan and
continue cooking for 3-4 minutes more or
until it is golden brown on the second
side.
Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
To assemble the dish, cut the frittata into
thin slices. Place them in a serving bowl
and toss lightly with the picante sauce.
Serve hot, room temperature or chilled if you desire.
