Frittata Base

Hot Pepper Aioli

Method

Frittata Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Chorizo

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chorizo and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Break it up with a spatula as it cooks.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Mushrooms and Spinach

    Add the wild mushrooms to the skillet with the chorizo. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms are tender. Then add the chopped spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.

  4. 4

    Combine and Cook

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the chorizo, mushrooms, and spinach. Stir gently to distribute the ingredients evenly. Cook on medium-low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese and Finish Cooking

    Sprinkle the grated white cheddar cheese on top. Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden on top.

  6. 6

    Cool and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm.

Hot Pepper Aioli Preparation

  1. 7

    Mix the Aioli Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, hot pepper sauce, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Stir until well blended.

  2. 8

    Adjust to Taste

    Taste the aioli and adjust the hot pepper sauce according to your spice preference. Mix again.
