EasyLombardy

The Frittata Rognosa del Garda is a rustic and hearty dish, suitable for an informal lunch, a simple dinner or to be served immediately after cooking. Its character depends on the combination of the softness of the eggs and a tasty filling, in which the pork and the smoked pancetta bring intensity, while onion and celery add aromatic notes and a more complex texture. Grated cheese completes the dough and helps make it compact and tasty. The technique requires twofold attention: the filling must cook for a long time to be well-blended and dry, while the frittata must set in a skillet Greasy and very hot, so as to form a solid surface and maintain a soft interior. The recipe is referred to as Lombard.
