This Summer Garden Frittata with Zucchini Flowers is a delightful and colorful dish that captures the essence of summer in every bite. It combines the freshness of zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and fragrant basil with the delicate flavor of zucchini flowers, all enveloped in creamy eggs and Parmesan cheese. Perfect for a leisurely summer brunch or a light dinner.
Ingredients: 6 large eggs. 1/2 cup milk. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 1 small onion, finely chopped. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 cup zucchini, thinly sliced. 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved. 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped. 6-8 zucchini flowers, stamens removed.
Instructions: Start by heating the oven to 350F 175C. Add the eggs, milk, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to a bowl and mix them together using a whisk. Put away. Warm up the olive oil in a big skillet that can go in the oven over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion that have been chopped up. Saut them for about two minutes, or until they turn clear. Put in the zucchini slices and cook for another two to three minutes, until the zucchini starts to get soft. Add the egg mixture to the pan and stir it around gently to make sure everything is spread out evenly. The zucchini flowers, cherry tomatoes, and chopped basil should all be added on top of the egg mix. Place the skillet in an oven that has already been heated and bake the frittata for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly golden. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down for a few minutes. Then cut it into pieces and serve. If you want, add more fresh basil leaves as a garnish. Have fun with your tasty Summer Garden Frittata with Zucchini Flowers!
