Directions
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 10-12 inch, oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic; sauté for 30 seconds. Add the leeks; sauté for 4-5 minutes or until softened. Add the shiitakes and scallions; sauté for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer vegetables to a plate. Let cool.
In a large bowl, combine eggs, ricotta cheese, fontina, Italian parsley, basil, milk, salt, freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper and cooled vegetables.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in the skillet over medium high heat. Pour in the egg mixture. Cook, using a fork to lift the edges of cooked egg so that the raw part can flow onto the hot skillet, just until the top is beginning to set, about 4-5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the frittata is set, about 8 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the broiler and brown the top, about 2 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve. |
