Equipment

  • Oven-safe skillet or frying pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 medium onions thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese or a dairy-free substitute
  • 1/4 cup milk or almond milk for a dairy-free option
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs such as parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
  • Start by slicing the onions thinly. This helps them cook evenly and caramelize nicely. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan, salt, and pepper until combined.
  • Step 2: Cook the Onions
  • In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until they become soft and golden brown. This step enhances the flavor, making the frittata taste even better.
  • Step 3: Combine and Cook
  • Pour the egg mixture over the cooked onions in the skillet. Use a spatula to gently mix the ingredients. Cook on the stove for about 2-3 minutes, just until the edges start to set.
  • Step 4: Finish in the Oven
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the frittata is puffed up and the center is set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
  • Step 5: Let it Rest
  • Once cooked, remove the frittata from the oven and let it stand for about 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and makes it easier to slice.
  • Step 6: Serve
  • Slice the frittata into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your delightful Frittata di Cipolle!
