HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

Preheat your oven broiler to high and ensure a rack is placed about 6 inches from the heat source.

02

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the turmeric powder, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper until thoroughly combined.

03

Stir in the chopped parsley, dill, green onions, and half of the crumbled feta into the egg mixture.

04

Heat an oven-safe 10-inch skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of oil.

05

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and spread it evenly with a spatula.

06

Cook undisturbed for 5 minutes until the bottom and edges begin to set.

07

Sprinkle the remaining feta and the chopped walnuts over the top of the frittata.

08

Transfer the skillet to the broiler for 3 to 5 minutes until the center is set and the top is golden brown.

09

Remove from the heat carefully and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing into wedges.

Chef's Tips

To ensure your frittata is light and airy, be sure to whisk the eggs until they are slightly frothy. The herbs should be very dry after washing to prevent a watery texture in the finished dish.
↔

Easy Substitutions

You can replace walnuts with pine nuts for a creamier texture. If you prefer a different flavor profile, swap the feta for goat cheese or a mild chèvre.
