Frittata With Morels, Fava Beans, And Pecorino Romano Cheese
- 1/3 cup shelled fava beans
- 1/2 cup fresh morel mushrooms (about 2 ounces)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons grated fresh pecorino Romano cheese, divided
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons light sour cream
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 2 large egg whites
- Fresh tarragon leaves (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
- Cook fava beans in boiling water 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon, and plunge beans into ice water; drain well. Peel tough skins from beans.
- Place mushrooms in a small bowl of cold water; swirl mushrooms gently to remove any grit. Drain; rinse well. Drain on paper towels, patting mushrooms dry.
- Heat oil in an 8-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms to pan; saute 5 minutes or until browned. Combine 1 tablespoon cheese, parsley, and next 6 ingredients (through egg whites) in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk. Stir in mushrooms and beans. Add egg mixture to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring gently. Place pan in oven; bake at 350u0b0 for 8 minutes or until edges are puffed and center is almost set. Remove from oven.
- Preheat broiler.
- Sprinkle top of frittata with remaining 1 tablespoon cheese. Broil 1 minute or until cheese melts. Garnish with fresh tarragon leaves, if desired.
