Method

Preparing the Potatoes

  1. 1

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. In a pot, add the diced potatoes and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Confit the Potatoes

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cooked potatoes and sauté them until they are golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Sautéing the Vegetables

  1. 3

    Sauté the Onion

    In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if necessary, and add the chopped red onion. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.

  2. 4

    Add Rosemary

    Add the chopped rosemary to the onions and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Mixing the Frittata

  1. 5

    Beat the Eggs

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Gently fold in the sautéed onions, confit potatoes, and arugula into the egg mixture. Add half of the pecorino cheese and mix well.

Cooking the Frittata

  1. 7

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 8

    Cook the Frittata

    In a large oven-safe skillet, pour the frittata mixture. Cook on the stovetop over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the edges begin to set.

  3. 9

    Bake the Frittata

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden on top.

Finishing Touches

  1. 10

    Add Remaining Cheese

    Once the frittata is done baking, remove it from the oven and sprinkle the remaining pecorino cheese on top.

  2. 11

    Serve

    Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
