Chanterelle and Fontina Frittata
- 8 large eggs, beaten
- 1 tablespoon chopped tarragon
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 pound chanterelle mushrooms, sliced if large (see Note)
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 ounces Fontina or Gruyere cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)
- Preheat the oven to 350.
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the chopped tarragon.
- In a large, nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until shimmering.
- Add the chanterelle mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook them over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned, about 8 minutes.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet.
- Add the beaten eggs and cook until they begin to set at the edges, about 30 seconds.
- Using a spatula, lift the edge and tilt the pan, allowing the uncooked eggs to seep underneath.
- Cook until the bottom is set, about 3 minutes.
- Sprinkle the cheese on top and bake the frittata for about 8 minutes, until fluffy and set.
- Slide the frittata onto a platter, cut into wedges and serve.
