FAQ · Things people ask

About this recipe.

Do I have to flip the frittata?

No — you can finish it under a hot grill for 3–4 min instead. The top will be set but pale rather than golden. For a proper crust on both sides, flipping is the Italian way.

What else can I add?

Frittata is a vehicle for leftovers. Cooked potatoes, roasted peppers, cheese, cooked greens, or cured meats all work. Keep the add-ins pre-cooked — raw ingredients release moisture and make the frittata wet.

Can I serve frittata cold?

Yes. Frittata is excellent at room temperature — it's a classic Italian picnic food and also good in a sandwich.
