Spectacular Fritatta
| 3 TB rosemary 3 TB basil |
pulverize together in a mortar and pestle |
| 8 eggs spices |
whip together in a large bowl |
| 1 cup fresh spinach (about 1-2 oz) | Coarsely chop spinach |
| 1 avacado | quarter and peel the avacado, the slice the quarters into 1/4 inch wedges |
| 1 medium to large onion (about 3/4-1 cup) | Chop. Saute in heavy cast-iron skillet until browned. Set aside in bowl. |
|
1 medium potato chopped spinach sauteed onion |
Pre-heat the broiler. slice the potato into 1 inch by 1.5 inch by 1/4 inch thick rounds. Saute in the skillet until tasty. Add the spinach and onion, and mix briefly. |
| egg mixture | Turn on a high fire. When everything is sizzling, pour the eggs over the vegetables. Let them cook until mostly set (only a minute or two). If you're feeling ambitious, lift up the edge and let some of the liquid egg run under to cook. Turn the fire off. |
| avacado slices 1 cup medium-packed grated cheddar cheese (about 4 oz) |
Lay the avacado slices out on top of the mostly-set eggs. Sprinkle a heavy layer of cheese over the avacado. Put the pan under the broiler until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted and bubbling, 3 minutes for me. If your broiler is hotter or colder your timing will vary - keep an eye on it. Slice and serve. |
