FETA AND DILL FRITTATA
ACTIVE: 30 min l TOTAL: 30 min l SERVES: 4
8 large eggs
½ cup plain whole-milk yogurt
¼ cup roughly chopped fresh dill
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 scallions, sliced
⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
3 Persian cucumbers
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 whole wheat pitas
¼ cup pomegranate seeds
- Preheat the oven to 350 ̊. Whisk the eggs, ¼ cup yogurt, the
dill, turmeric, ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a
large bowl. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in an 8-inch ovenproof
nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook,
stirring, until softened, about 30 seconds. Pour in the egg mixture.
As the edges start to set, scrape them with a rubber spatula and
push the cooked egg toward the middle of the pan. Continue
doing this until the eggs are about half cooked, 2 to 3 minutes,
then stop stirring and let the edges set, about 30 seconds.
Sprinkle the feta on top. - Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the frittata is set
and just a little soft in the middle when pressed, 13 to 15 minutes.
Let cool in the skillet for a few minutes, then slide out onto a
cutting board. - Meanwhile, slice the cucumbers and toss with ¼ teaspoon salt
in a medium bowl. Let sit 5 minutes, then drain off any liquid.
Stir in the remaining ¼ cup yogurt and the lemon juice. Season
with salt and pepper. - Warm the pitas in the oven, about 3 minutes; tear into quarters.
Cut the frittata into wedges and divide among plates along with
the cucumber salad and pita. Top the cucumber salad with the
remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the pomegranate seeds.
