10 steps

Ingredients

  • 6 to 8 ounces linguini, spaghetti, or other pasta, cooked and sauced or not sauced, leftover or freshly cooked, at room temperature
  • 4 eggs lightly beaten
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano or pecorino, or a combination, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup diced salami
  • 5 ounces sliced mozzarella

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the pasta, the beaten eggs, the black pepper, and the grated cheese.
  2. 2
    Mix well.
  3. 3
    In a 8 to 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and swirl it around to make it coat the bottom of the pan.
  4. 4
    Add half the pasta and spread it evenly in the pan.
  5. 5
    Place the sliced cheese and salami on top, but don't put any cheese within 1/2 inch of the edge.
  6. 6
    Add the remaining pasta and spread it to make sure it covers the bottom pasta layer and the sliced cheese.
  7. 7
    Cook over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes, or until the bottom browns.
  8. 8
    Place a plate on top of the pan and reverse the frittata so it falls on the plate.
  9. 9
    Slip the frittata back into the skillet and cook the other side for another 5 to 8 minutes, until it browns.
  10. 10
    Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
