Ham Frittata


Since I have introduced this Ham Frittata on the Chinese radio show, I thought, I better publish the recipe on my blog as well. This is my all time favourite brunch dish. An easy make ahead dish, that pleases anybody from "older" to very young. Everyone should have this recipe as their basic repertoire. The beauty about this frittata recipe is you can substitute the ham with anything that you have as leftovers in your fridge. I made it several time with leftover roast chicken and broccoli and it tastes just as good. If you are a vegetarian, just add all the veggies you love and you will have a vegetable frittata. See how easy it is ??? Why don't you try it out now yourself !!!

Ham Frittata

1 medium onion, diced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
12 extra-large eggs
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded cheese
1/2 pound ham, chopped
1/4 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro & green onions
Salt & freshly ground pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 1:
In a large bowl, beat the eggs.

Step 2:
Add the rest of the ingredients and combine.

Step 3:
Pour the mixture a lightly greased 9 x 13 square glass pan and place the pan in the center of the oven.

Step 4:
Bake the frittata for about 50 minutes, until it puffs and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve hot directly from the pan.

Enjoy !
