Breakfast frittata with potatoes and spinach American-style Recipe
This baked frittata is an American answer to the “everything in one dish” idea – eggs, potatoes, spinach, and cheese all go into the oven together, and after a dozen or so minutes you have breakfast ready for the whole family. In many US homes, dishes like this are made on weekends to use up leftover vegetables from the fridge and avoid standing over the stove for ages. The frittata is as filling as a casserole but lighter than a classic breakfast with bacon and fried eggs.

Ingredients
- eggs - 6 piece
- potatoes - 300 g
- spinach - 80 g
- onion - 1 piece
- cheese - 80 g
- milk - 60 ml
- oil - 1 tablespoon
- butter - 10 g
- garlic - 1 clove
- salt
- pepper
Main Ingredient:
eggs
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (top and bottom heat). Lightly grease an ovenproof dish or an oven-safe pan with oil.
- Peel the potatoes and cut into small cubes about 1 cm in size. Peel and finely dice the onion, and chop the garlic.
- Heat the butter with the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the potatoes and fry for 8–10 minutes, stirring often, until they soften and start to brown lightly.
- Add the onion and fry for another 3–4 minutes, until it softens and becomes slightly translucent. Add the garlic and fry for 30 seconds more, just until fragrant.
- Add the spinach and cook for 1–2 minutes, until the leaves wilt and reduce in volume. Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, add the cheese grated on the coarse side of a grater, and season with salt and pepper. Mix with the contents of the pan.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and smooth the top. Place in the oven and bake for 15–18 minutes, until the center is set and the top has risen slightly and feels springy to the touch.
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let it stand for 5 minutes to firm up slightly. Cut into wedges or squares and serve warm.
