Mom's Potato Frittata

Do you remember that scene in the movie Ratatouille when the food critic Anton Ego tastes Remi's ratatouille and is instantly transported back to his childhood, remembering the dish his mother used to make? Some flavors just taste like home—quick dinners made with a few simple ingredients, but lots of love. Potato frittata is one of those dishes. My mom always made it for me in the evening, and it was such a treat. It's a recipe worth passing down, so I'm happy to include it here. My mom also makes it the same way with zucchini or asparagus.

Steps

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Cut the potatoes into small, even pieces so they cook evenly. Place them on a plate and add a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil. Use your hands to coat the potatoes well. My mom adds the oil directly to the pan, but if you do it this way, the frittata will be less greasy and easier to digest.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, beat the three eggs and add salt. Heat a large skillet.

    Add the potatoes to the very hot skillet. Stir them until they are golden brown.

  4. 4

    Pour the eggs evenly over the potatoes, making sure all the potatoes are covered. Let the eggs set for a couple of minutes. When the eggs are almost fully set on top, flip the frittata using a flat plate. Cook the other side for a few more minutes. Serve sliced so everyone can help themselves. It goes great with a nice salad.

Mi chiamo Marco e vivo in provincia di Pisa. La cucina è una delle mie passioni. Nel 2018 ho provato per la prima volta un ristorante stellato e ho cambiato completamente la mia attitudine verso il cibo. La mia filosofia è che tutto quello che mangiamo dovrebbe sempre valere la pena di essere mangiato, essere sempre un'esperienza di gusto.
