I cook fritattas very often, at least once a week. That one should be
very good only I think it needs some garlic... I'd also mix some of
Penzy's Italian herb blend in with the eggs and let it sit a bit to
rehydrate. With all that cheese I wouldn't add any salt. I've found
dicing the vegetables rather than strips make it easier to slice for
serving. I cook mine completely on the stove top, when well set I
slice it into quarters with the spatula, quarters are easy to flip for
browning the other side. I use a 12" SS pan and usually use a dozen
eggs, sometimes a couple more when they are all that's left in another
carton (I have a thing against lonesome eggs), a dozen eggs makes four
servings. I like to begin by slowly frying the 1/2" diced potatoes
until browned and crispy, takes about an hour and I use 2-3 large
potatoes, they will shrink down by half. I find it unnecessary to
roast and peel bell peppers when sauted to cook in an omelet. I like
left over fritatta cold the next day.
