Easy Mother'S Day Sunday Brunch: Frittata With Spinach And Cheese Recipe
- 2 pounds spinach, tough stems removed and rinsed well
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 8 large eggs
- 1/4 cup fresh or aged sheep or goat cheese (cheddar will also do just fine)
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot, and add 2 tablespoons salt. Set up the an ice bath next to the stove. Plunge the spinach into the boiling water and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and transfer to the ice bath until chilled.
- Remove the spinach from the ice bath and drain in a colander, then place between two plates and squeeze out the excess liquid. Place in a kitchen towel and twist to dry further, then place on a cutting board and finely chop.
- In a 9-inch nonstick saute pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat until hot. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, beat the eggs to blend. Add the spinach, cheeses, and salt and pepper to taste and mix well to combine.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook until the bottom has set, about 5 minutes. Hold a flat plate over the pan and invert the frittata onto the plate, then slide it back into the pan. Cook until just about set, about 5 minutes more, and serve hot.
