Answers:

Zucchini Blossom Frittata (omelet with an attitude)



Time/Servings
Total Time: 35 mins

Active Time: 20 mins

Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients
8 large eggs
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup finely grated aged Manchego cheese
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/4 stick)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound (about 4) small zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh marjoram leaves
16 zucchini blossoms, stems and pistils removed, halved
Instructions
Heat the broiler to high and position the rack in the center of the oven. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, half of the cheese, salt, and a generous pinch of freshly ground black pepper until thoroughly combined.
In a large ovenproof frying pan, heat butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Add zucchini and marjoram, and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook zucchini, stirring occasionally, until the edges are crispy and browned and the interior is tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Add zucchini blossoms and cook briefly, until they are wilted but not falling apart, about 2 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium low, pour egg mixture over zucchini, and evenly distribute the remaining cheese over the top. Cook until a 2-inch-wide border of egg around the perimeter of the pan is firm and beginning to pull away from the sides, about 10 minutes. (The center of the frittata will not be set at this point.)
Place the pan on the center rack of the oven, under the broiler, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the edges are golden brown. Cut into wedges and serve.
