Frittata- Perfect for breakfast and easy to make it.

Ingredients:-
8 eggs
3 lbs. potatoes cubed
2 cups oil for frying vegetable/canola/sunflower
3/4 tsp salt
Fresh cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup Pecorino Romano grated (Parmigiano Reggiano can also be used)
10-inch nonstick frying pan
Directions:-
Step#1- Rinse potatoes, peel, and cube. Place them in a large bowl filled with cold water.
Step#2- In a large frying pan bring the oil to 350°F (180°C) add potatoes in batches and fry until golden.
Step#3- Drain on a paper towel and set aside.
Step#4- In a large bowl beat eggs, salt, pepper, and grated cheese.
Step#5- Add potatoes and mix gently.
Step#6- Add tablespoon oil to the frying pan. On medium heat let it get warm. Add egg and potatoes mixture, cover with a lid and let it cook until the bottom is golden. Use the lid to flip the frittata and cook the other side until golden. A flat lid makes for easier flipping.
My nonna would always serve with fresh tomato salad and it brings back so many wonderful memories!
Buon appetito! 💖

This brings me back to my childhood. It was one of my father’s favorite foods after work. He would have a few sausage links along side with a nice piece of Italian bread and a glass of red wine! Oh how I miss those days!

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Now you have me crying! He was a beautiful person, I can almost see him sitting in the kitchen enjoying his food. Life is just going to quickly! 💚🤍♥️

[@vitarotella7043]

Brings back memories for sure! As children we had potato and egg sandwiches!

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much! We always had the potato frittata with tomato salad. It was the perfect meal. Of course we dunked all the bread in the oil fr the tomatoes. 💚🤍♥️

[@Batlady]

Alesssandra my grand parents came from Ventotene.. and Naples so I’m familiar with your cooking and meals that you make mom was born in Genova but she knew Neapolitan cooking from her mom so she passed down her recipes to me .. actually no measurements lol I watched her make them so I learned them .. unfortunately it’s hard to break the measurements down and I don’t have granddaughters to,pass to but I do have grandsons that I taught a few recipes to.. lol

Welcome home!!! 🇺🇸 how was the trip? What was your most memorable meal? We were in Spain and loved the artichokes. Thank you always for watching

[@audreyryan3719]

@@alessandrasfoodislove Thank you! Actually, the best food I had was the Neapolitan style pizza!

[@browser958]

Love frittatas! Grew up eating them in my Italian family, potatoes and eggs, peppers and egg, sometimes a couple of leftover fried sausages cut up into small slices sometimes not, lol. And the simple tomato salad too. I still make them for a quick easy AND delicious meal. Nice Italian comfort food. My family uses pecorino Romano much more than Parmesan so this was nice to see in your recipe too. Thanks for the mini Italian lessons too, love it!

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much for watching! So many combinations to make!! I love the sharp flavor of the Pecorino Romano. Some things just ate so much better with it. I’ve been adding lots of it to my egg wash for chicken cutlets and they come out delicious! 💖 it’s crazy how I start a sentence in English middle in italian and end it in napoletano. 😂😂💚🤍♥️

[@browser958]

@@alessandrasfoodislove My mom taught me to add the pecorino to the egg wash for chicken cutlets too. I’ve seen so many cooks on KZbin that add it to the breadcrumbs and thought it was just my family that put it in with the egg. I think it taste much better in the wash. My grandmother would start a sentence in English and end up in Italian lol. I wish I had picked up more than a few words but was young when she passed and my mom only spoke Italian with her so I didn’t get the language lesson from her. Love your channel, recipes and how you make everything seem so easy to make.

I swear I can smell this cooking!! 🤣😂😅 I’m guessing it’s wishful thinking! 🥰❤️😘Looks wonderful my friend!! 👩🏻‍🍳🍷

Thank you so much for doing a frittata video!!...

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much for watching. A flat lid works best. 💖

[@ameliasarno1210]

Another one of my favorites!!! Haha I never used the lid! I always wrestled with a plate. Love that Fritatta!!

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

A flat lid is best but of course I couldn’t find mine for the video lol My nonna would use a light aluminum lid. I remember as if it were today, some things are just sketched in our minds. 💖 thank you so very much!

[@alicehagan3251]

Alessandra!! Again, you have done it. This is an all time favorite of mine and you are so right you must make extra potatoes because they are delicious that way by themselves. I used to make this all the time - and again wonderful memories of mom and my grandma making this for our family. I want some right now please! Lots of love to you…

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much! What a beautiful compliment to be compared to your mom and grandma. Hope you’ll make it for yourself. My family and I were just in Spain and it was a very popular dish there. Simple and delicious! 💚🤍♥️💖

[@jovita9802]

I grew up on this!! xo

[@guillerminastover7099]

Very similar to a Spanish Tortilla...and maybe it's lots easier to prepare! I'll have to try this, Alessandra. By the way, I ordered two ingredients from Amazon for the Pastiera Napoletana! Grazie, Alessandra.Adoro tutte le tue ricette!!!

[@jeanniemariecaruso2853]

Love this! ThiSGirL loves comfort and your frittata is just that. I loved your flipping method, I usually use a plate and lots of prayer when I flip and when I miss I’m usually flipping out. Lol. I loved the pan with that groove lid you used. Please share where I can get one, you made the flipping look like a magic trick. Never saw pastel colored eggs either, thanks for sharing where to purchased them. Love watching your channel, I always learn something new like that wonderful salad it’s like I’ve been missing the cherry on my ice cream Sunday.

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Dear Jeannie, thank you so much for watching. The frying pan I purchased at Costco and the lid is a glass lid from my pots. Nothing specific just that the size matches. My nonna would use a larger aluminum lid that gave extra space for flipping the frittata. The pastel eggs are from a local farm. The chickens during spring tend to make colored eggs. Nature is so beautiful. Thank you for your beautiful words. Love reading them and they give me the drive to keep going. God bless 🙏🏻💚🤍♥️

[@chloespolverino]

Amazing Alessandra, I make frittata all the time and never thought of putting a lid on it I usually put in oven and broil the top, but will try your method …..I love the thickness to the frittata and I can see this come from cutting the potatoes in bigger pieces. Thank you bella

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much! A flat lid really does the trick. I’m making it again today because everyone loved it. I love the meals where there are no complaints at the table. Lol.

Ma'am! Could you please tell me about any eggless recipe...for vegetarians

[@lynncapella3837]

Do you think this would work w potatoes that have been roasted or boiled instead of fried???

[@lynncapella3837]

I just made this w my roasted potatoes. Also added some smoked provolone and thin sliced hot capicola. VERY GOOD! The flip is a little tricky and I probably cooked it a little too long before I flipped it but it’s still excellent. Would be delicious for any meal. Have you had any success freezing leftovers (if you ever have any)?

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

That sounds delicious!
