Frittata. The frittata usually has a lot of other ingredients mixed in with the eggs, such as sliced cooked potatoes. It is started on the stove top then transferred to the oven to bake until the eggs are set. A frittata is eaten in slices, either hot of cold, whereas an omelette is a thin layer of eggs, sometimes filled, is served rolled and eaten hot.



Fritata and omlette are similar but not the same. A frittata is a crustles quiche. It is baked and has cream and so on added.

Omettes have just a splash of milk or water added and are cooked on the stove top sometimes finished in the oven.
