Yam Frittata

This whole time I have thought a frittata was Spanish/South American! Really it’s an Italian style omelette. And actually the way I’ve prepared omelettes my whole life. Just read up a bit on Wikipedia and learned that French omelettes are prepared only on the stove-top and served folded. Italian frittatas are prepared on the stove-top but finished in the oven/broiler.

We are going to create a frittata with yams and for that we will need:

  • 1 big yam or sweet potato
  • 5 eggs

Cube the yam into quarter inch pieces and fry them in olive oil in an oven safe pan for about ten minutes on medium heat. Stir often so they don’t burn. Add the eggs and pre heat the oven on maximum heat/broil. Put the pan into the oven and broil for about 5-10 minutes.

Served with Pico de Gallo.
