Method

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that the frittata cooks evenly.

Step 2: Prepare the Ingredients

Chop the salumi and vegetables into bite-sized pieces.

Grate the cheese if you’re not using pre-grated cheese.

Step 3: Whisk the Eggs

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined. The mixture should be light and frothy.

Step 4: Sauté the Vegetables

Heat the olive oil or butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

Add the onions and bell peppers, sautéing until softened (about 3-4 minutes).

Step 5: Add the Salumi

Add the chopped salumi to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 6: Combine the Mixture

Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed ingredients in the skillet.

Sprinkle the grated cheese evenly on top.

Allow it to cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes, until the edges start to set.

Step 7: Bake the Frittata

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is slightly golden.

Step 8: Cool and Serve

Once done, carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let it stand for 5 minutes.

Slice the frittata into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.

Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Variations

Vegetarian: Replace salumi with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini.

Cheese Swap: Try different cheeses like goat cheese or cheddar.

Herbed Frittata: Add fresh herbs like dill or chives for an extra flavor boost.
