Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club

Potato Frittata

Potato Frittata

Elegant enough for a brunch party, this egg-and-potato dish is also easy enough for a casual weekend breakfast. The potatoes can be steamed a day or two in advance.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound red potatoes
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 ounces freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • Coarse sea salt
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 large leek, twiced rinsed, trimmed of the tough, dark green ends, and sliced into 1/4-inch discs
  • 2 tablespoons Condimento Bianco Senape, plus more for drizzling

Directions

Step 1

Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch slices. Steam them on a steamer rack over simmering water until tender, about 25 minutes. 

Step 2

In a bowl, whisk the eggs until no whites show, then whisk in the cheese, milk, black pepper, and 1 teaspoon salt until well combined. 

Step 3

Heat a 14-inch skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the olive oil and the leeks. Sprinkle with a big pinch of salt and sauté until the leeks soften and turn light brown, about 10 minutes. Layer on the potato slices, overlapping them a bit. Pour on the egg mixture. Cover the pan and cook without disturbing over medium heat until the eggs firm up, about 8 minutes. Drizzle on the vinegar, cover the pan again, and remove from heat. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing into wedges. Drizzle each portion with more olive oil and vinegar.
