Ingredients

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven grill to medium. Whisk eggs with cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper.

  2. 2

    Warm oil in an oven-safe pan. Cook potato and onion over medium-low heat, covered, for 10 minutes, turning occasionally.

  3. 3

    Uncover and cook until the potatoes are tender and lightly golden. Add tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in the egg mixture and move the pan gently so it reaches the edges. Cook over low heat until the bottom and sides set.

  5. 5

    Place under the grill for 2 to 4 minutes until the center is just set. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Cooking Tips

  • Slice potatoes to the same thickness so they finish together.
  • Use an oven-safe handle and remember it stays hot after grilling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare tomato and potato skillet frittata ahead?

Prepare components in advance where practical, but use the final cooking and resting steps for the best texture. Cool perishable ingredients promptly and store them covered in the refrigerator.

How should I adjust the seasoning?

Slice potatoes to the same thickness so they finish together. Taste near the end and make small adjustments rather than adding a large amount at once.
