Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup grated pecorino cheese
2 tbsp roughly chopped flat leaf parsley
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp chopped fresh oregano
8 eggs, beaten
fresh ground black pepper , to taste
2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, halved and thinly sliced
3 fresh scallions, chopped fine
2 fingerling potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/8-inch rounds
1 red bell pepper , roasted, peeled , and cut into1/4-inch strips (don'tsp used the bottled kind, the integrity of the dish will be ruined, they are too runny!)
1 cup homemade ricotta cheese

Directions:

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 425°F
In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of the pecorino, parsley, 1/2 teaspoons of the salt, oregano, and eggs and season with black pepper & red pepper flakes (if using); set egg mixture aside.
Heat the oil in a 10 nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat; add the remaining salt, onions, and potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and soft, about 20 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat.
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and stir to distribute the onions & scallions and potatoes evenly.
Scatter the peppers over the top, spoon the ricotta over the mixture in 6 dollops, and sprinkle with the remaining pecorino.
Bake until lightly browned and the center is set, about 15 minutes.
Run a rubber spatula around the edges of the frittata to loosen it.
Slide the frittata onto a serving plate; season with more black pepper, if you like.
Enjoy!
