Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Heat the olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced potatoes and onion to the skillet and sauté until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the spinach to the skillet and continue to cook until the spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the salt and black pepper. Pour this mixture over the cooked vegetables in the skillet, making sure it is evenly distributed.
- Sprinkle the top with the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, or until the eggs are set, and the cheese is melted and golden.
- Remove from the oven and let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the frittata to set and makes it easier to slice.
Tips
- You can substitute the spinach with other leafy greens like kale or arugula.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or tomatoes.
- For a non-vegetarian version, add cooked bacon or sausage.
