Aside from realizing too large that I only had large eggs, not extra-large ones on hand, I'd say this turned out pretty well. I think I will use seasoned potatoes next time though (diced potatoes with maybe Lawry's seasoning as the base. I paired with steamed broccoli and English toasting bread. This is a BLD meal, for sure. :

Delicious hardy egg breakfast. I decided to add ham to the frittata which made it even more scrumptious. Can't wait to eat the leftovers for dinner tonight!

Usually I love Ina's recipes, but I have made much better frittatas. It wasn't gooey like I wanted it to be even with a substantial amount of gruyere. The ricotta just seemed to make it heavy, causing the potatoes..I used red skins..to sink to the bottom. The combination of flavors was bland and it seemed to have an excessive amount of butter.

Turned out wonderful - I used cottage cheese instead of ricotta. I do think it would be really yummy with sliced tomatoes on top as the other comment suggested.

This was very tasty even my 6 yr old son loved it! I didn't add potatoes because I didn't have any at the time. And instead of riccota cheese I used cottage cheese. The gruyer cheese I changed with Asiago cheese. I also added sliced tomatoes to the top. It was heavenly. I will try the recipe again the way it is written here, but had to use what I had on hand and didn't have time to run to the store.

Great dish! I added a bit of leftover rendered pancetta. Added another element of texture/flavor without overpowering the basil.

This is a favorite dish to have when we visit my in-laws. I agree that it has a milder flavor, but it is still delicious. I don't eat eggs as a general rule, but this frittata is always my request when visiting my mother in law.

Puffed up nicely, but thought taste was kind of bland. Used swiss instead of gruyere; don't know if that makes a difference. Might try it again with scallions, bacon, and cheddar to give more zip .

I made this frittata todayfor brunch I was hosting. It received rave reviews from my guests.
It was very easy to prepre and I didn't change anything in the recipe, nor would I change anything after tasting it.
My boyfriend says he doesn't like ricotta cheese, however, he never knew he was eating it. It gives it a very creamy and subtle taste. I served it with bacon and a fresh heirloom tomatoe salad.
When I entertain I always go with Ina's recipes. They are always easy to prepare and enjoyed my all.
