Smash The Place

The next set of recipes is from the World Cup Final Brunch. Hopefully, this will become an every four year tradition because it was such a success. We prepared foods from the two competing countries and a good time was had by all (except those of us supporting France. Je suis desole.) Anyways, this frittata was a delcious offering from the Italian side, proving that even jerks who probably say racist shit to Zizou that causes him to head butt them and get a red card and then they later say, what me, say racist things? i am but a simple italian villager and i do not even know what a this "butt fucked terrorist" means! etc. can come from a country that makes delicious egg based cuisine. I got the recipe off Recipezaar.




2 medium sized potatoes, boiled and mashed
1/2 onion, chopped
4 tbs butter
4 eggs
1/2 c diced prosciutto or salumi
1/2 c chopped basil
1/2 c grated parmesan
1/3 c grated mozarella
salt and pepper

1. fry onion in two tbs of butter until carmelized, about 10 minutes. Add potatoes and diced prosciutto and stir well.
2. pre-heat broiler.
3. beat eggs and add potato mixture, basil, parmesan, mozarella. mix well. season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. pour mixture into oven safe pan and cook until the eggs set and only the middle is still moist.
5. finish the frittata by placing it under the broiler for about a minute or two, until golden.

serves four, but it will go fast because it is so amazingly tasty!
