Potato Frittata

Ingredients
1/2 large yellow onion, diced small
4 small potatoes, pre-blanched 6 eggs
2 tbsp Olive oil (divided)
Parsley, chopped fine (if desired)
Parmesan cheese (if desired)
Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

• Preheat the oven to 400°.
• Crack the eggs into a medium bowl & whisk with a pinch of salt & pepper & the chopped parsley
  (if desired).
• Wash & scrub the potatoes in cold water, peeling if desired.
• Microwave or place potatoes in boiling salted water until they can be easily pierced by a fork.
• Remove & slice the potatoes into ¼-inch thick rounds & add to the egg mixture, stirring to combine well. Meanwhile, add the diced onion & 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet & cook on medium heat with a pinch of salt, stirring until golden.
• Add the cooked onions to the egg mixture with ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese (if desired) & stir to combine well. Wipe out the skillet & add the remaining olive oil & coat the pan, heating it under medium-high heat.
• Add the egg mixture & spread it evenly across the skillet. Cook 5-10 minutes until the frittata on the sides of the skillet begins to set. Place the skillet in the oven for 10-20 minutes, until the egg is no longer runny in the middle & cooked through. (For a crispy top, place under the broiler for final 2 minutes.)
• Remove from the oven & transfer to a large plate, or serve frittata from the skillet by slicing into wedges when cooled. Top with grated cheese, salt and pepper, as desired.
