Tips Of Making a Good Vegetable Frittata
Add some dairy product either milk or cream. I am not a great fan of using cream but I like to use skim milk and happy with the results. ¼ cup for 6 eggs is a good way to go, be careful not to add too much because it can alter the texture of the frittata.
Veggies should be sauteed before adding to the frittata, as I said before leftovers work beautifully in any frittata, I have made the veggie version but if you like meat you can very well add meat as well, provided it is precooked.
Try and use cast iron pan, because it stays safe in the oven and almost every time gives you the perfect result each time.
