Notes
You can also start your frittata on the stove top and move it into the oven to finish cooking. To do this, cook on the stove top until the bottom is golden brown. Then place the frying pan in a 425 F oven for about 10 minutes longer, or just until the center of the dish is set. The frittata will continue to cook a little bit longer, even after you remove it from the oven.
