Cheesy Potato Frittata Recipe | Brunch Food | Cooking Up Love

Our Cheesy Potato Frittata Recipe cooks on the stovetop in about 15 minutes, and is loaded crispy potatoes, sharp cheddar cheese and a handful of eggs to make what is essentially a hearty crustless quiche that’s also super easy to customize with your favorite add-ins.

Potato Frittata Recipe Ingredients
1 lb potatoes, I'm using russet potatoes
2 tablespoons avocado or extra virgin olive oil
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
7 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp smoked paprika
2 garlic cloves

Potato Frittata Recipe Directions
Begin with about a pound potatoes, washing them well under running water, then chopping them into pieces about ½ inch square. Place the potatoes on a single layer on a microwave safe plate, and microwave on high for about 2 ½ minutes, just until the potatoes are tender. It’s best to do this in two batches, so the potatoes are spread out evenly.

Next, heat a 10 inch cast iron skillet over medium high heat, and add 2 tablespoons of avocado or olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the potatoes, stirring to coat each piece with oil. Cook the potatoes on medium high heat for about 7 - 10 minutes, until they’re crispy on the edges.

While the potatoes cook, we’re going to put together rest of the ingredients. Grate about a cup of cheese. Crack 7 eggs, and add 1/2 tsp salt and a 1/2 tsp ground black pepper. Add 1/4 tsp smoked paprika, and whisk to combine.

Pour over the potatoes in the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium, and cook until the eggs are set, about 3 - 5 minutes. Lift the edge of the frittata, and tip the pan gently so the uncooked eggs make it to the bottom of the pan to cook. You can add a cover to help cook the eggs on top. Add the ½ cup of cheese on top, and cover and cook until the eggs are just cooked.

You can pop it under a broiler set on HIGH for a minute or two for some color on top, I don’t bother preheating the broiler, because everything is cooked at this point. The frittata is light and fluffy, it’s perfectly seasoned… this potato frittata is great for feeding a crowd, and if you have any leftovers, they’re easily reheated and great for breakfast, lunch or dinner during the week.

Thank you so much for watching and I’ll see you in the next video!
