Frittata with cheese and fresh basil

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Basil leaves
6 larges Eggs
4 tablespoons Romano or parmesan - fresh
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Rinse and dry basil leaves. Cut into slivers, set aside.

In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and some freshly ground pepper. Add cheese and basil, gently mix.

Preheat a 10 inch omelet pan with olive oil. When hot, pour eggs into pan. When the eggs are set, gently detach omelet from the bottom of the pan. Gently flip by placing a face down plate over the pan.

Firmly hold the plate and pan and turn it over. Slide the frittata back into the omelet pan. Return to the stove and cook the other side for 1 more minute. Remove to serving plate, cut into wedges and serve either hot or cold. Submitted By JIM CARNEVALE On 09-28-94
