Potato Frittata Sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 potatoes medium, peeled and sliced
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese grated
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 whole-wheat bread buns or 8 slices of whole-wheat bread
- 4 lean ham slices nitrate-free, Boar's Head is a good choice
- 4 cheese slices low-fat
- 4 romaine lettuce leaves large
Instructions
- Over high heat, in a pot with boiling salted water, cook the potatoes for 10 - 15 minutes or until tender. Drain when they are cooked and set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Set aside.
- Over medium heat, in a saucepan with olive oil, distribute the potatoes evenly and cook for about a minute until they color. Pour the egg mixture. When the bottom side is cooked (you will know when it slides easily), turn it by transferring it to a saucepan cover or a plate.
- Slide back the frittata in the saucepan to cook the other side.
- When the frittata is cooked, divide it into 4.
- Prepare each sandwich by filling it up with a lettuce leaf, a slice of the frittata, a slice of ham and cheese.
