Mushroom and Scallion Frittata

 


Any combination of mushrooms works well in this dish; choose among shiitake, cremini, oyster, or maitake.

 

  • 3 large whole eggs plus 3 large egg whites
  • ¼ cup cottage cheese
  • 6 mushrooms, trimmed, cleaned, and thinly sliced
  • 4 scallions, trimmed and finely chopped
  • Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

 

  1. Heat broiler, with rack 4 inches from heat source. In a large bowl, whisk together whole eggs, egg whites, and cottage cheese. Add mushrooms and scallions; season with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
  2. Heat oil in a medium ovenproof skillet over medium. Add egg mixture. Cook until eggs are almost set, 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Transfer skillet to broiler. Cook until the top is set and just beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Run a flexible spatula around edge of frittata to loosen from pan. Cut into wedges, and serve.
