Directions
Potato Basil Frittata (Barefoot Contessa) Ina Garten, Inspired by Anna Pump Ina Garten made this the other afternoon and she had me drooling When we made it, we made it w/out basil (personal preference) and subbed with parsley It was wonderful! Update – 06/28/09: Have been meaning to add this for quite some time – since I am not a basil lover I have been experimenting because I felt it needed something too! I added 5 oz of cottage cheese and 12 oz of ricotta, & added crushed red pepper flakes, to taste and it made it very good indeed! I imagine when you use the fresh basil with its wonderful aroma & taste – you may not need to make this slight change Also, tried using less yolks & increased the amount of whites but that was for a certain somebody & have only done it once! 😉 I don’t like taking a recipe apart but I still maintain that a lot of these changes we are forced to make – circumstances are different for everyone I have also made this with Sharp Cheddar – delicious!, Ounce measurements given for splitting gruyere cheese seem off 3/4 lb weight is 12 oz Splitting that would be 6 oz of each cheese , You’re a life saver I’m a non cook who made this for my wife on Mother’s Day Came out excellent Thank you!
