Description:
A fritta is a large omelet. This is a take on my grandma's recipe.
Ingredients:
  • ½ cup prepared lentils
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 tsp Marjoram (the spice not the butter substitute)
  • ¼ sweet onion
  • Olive oil
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • A heavy handful of grated Parmesan Cheese

 

Directions:

Cover a pan with olive oil (for this size fritta I use a medium sauce pan. To double recipe I use a large skillet pan). Cook onions to a sweat clear (do not caramelize). Add Lentils. Beat eggs, marjoram, cheese, and salt. Add egg mixture to pan. DO NOT SCRAMBLE. Push mixture to center as the omelet begins to form so that the center solidifies before the edge. As omelet forms and the top is still eggy…place under broiler to solidify and brown top. Blot excess oil. Flip onto a plate and then onto another to finish with broiled side up.

Equipment:

ovenproof skillet
