A frittata is an egg-based dish that’s sort of like an omelet, but simpler: Instead of folding the eggs over their fillings—which is where a lot of home cooks go wrong—you just mix everything together, and broil the top to finish cooking it. It’s served firm, with the eggs completely set, and can be eaten hot or at room temperature—another factor that makes frittatas easier than omelets. As with omelets, nearly anything can go into frittatas: herbs, vegetables, meats, cheeses, and even fish. They’re an especially great way to use up small amounts of leftovers, which is actually how I invent my frittata recipes: Whether it’s that single stalk of fresh oregano, a few slices of prosciutto, or a small hunk of fontina, it can go in my frittata. And the results are much more often delicious than not. Here are two of my favorites—great as snacks, with a salad as a light lunch, or even as the filling for a hearty sandwich.
