Recipe Introduction


Take a potato, an onion, some leftover vegetables, maybe even some cooked meat or chicken, a pinch of this and a pinch of that, and in a short time you can make a delicious Italian omelette called a frittata. It is better than a deep-dish pizza. You can use other vegetables in the recipe below, but here is a combination that works well.





List of Ingredients



• 3 medium red potatoes, skins on, preboiled and sliced thick
  
• 1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and diced
  
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  
• 8 eggs
  
• 1 cup shredded jarlsberg cheese
  
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  
• freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  






Instructions



1. Saute the potatoes, peppers, and onion in olive oil and butter in large 10 inch skillet or nonstick pan until the onion is translucent.
   
   
2. Beat the eggs until frothy; add the cheese, thyme, and pepper to the eggs. Pour the mixture evenly into the skillet and shake it into place.
   
3. When the bottom is formed and browned, put a large plate over the pan, flip, then slide the frittata back into the pan to cook the top. If you do not feel confident enough to do this, put the pan under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes.
