Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 4 slices prosciutto or ham, diced about 1/4 lb
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons parmigiano-reggiano cheese
- salt and pepper
- 1/4 cup basil or parsley, chopped
- 2 cups cooked spaghetti
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese or other cheese, cubed (about 6 oz)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 tablespoons butter
Directions
1
In a frying pan, saute the prosciutto or ham in the olive oil until crispy; Drain on brown paper or paper towels.2
In a large bowl, beat the eggs; Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano, salt and pepper, and basil or parsley; Add the spaghetti and mix well, then stir in the mozzarella cheese and proscuitto.3
In a 9-inch frying pan, heat 2T of the butter and 2T of the olive oil; Add the spaghetti mixture and smooth the top with a spatula; Cook over medium-low heat until the frittata is browned on the bottom and set.4
Invert a plate larger than the frying pan over the pan and turn out the frittata; Heat the remaining butter and olive oil in the pan, and return the frittata to the pan to brown the other side.5

Rather than turning the frittata, place the pan under the broiler for 5- 8 minutes.7
Invert a serving plate over the frying pan and carefully turn out the frittata; Serve at room temperature, cut in wedges.8
NOTE: This is even better the day after it is made.

My husband was wanting one of his favorite comfort food dishes for dinner: buttered pasta with parmesan and garlic. I needed a little more...and low and behold there was your recipe! It looked perfect from the get go...but while preparing it I couldn't help myself and added some diced roasted red peppers and some course chopped garlic. I put that in with the very thick sliced streaky bacon pieces I was sauteing just before it was finishing up. Because I was using an iron skillet I opted not to use the stove-top step and after mixing everything together I put it back in the iron skillet and then into a 400 degree oven for about 15 minutes. I browned the top at the end under the broiler for 3 or 4 minutes. My husband really liked it as he had both his buttered garlic/parm pasta with really flavorful chunks of crispy bacon. I loved the flavor combination of the basil, bacon, and cheeses. Deeeelish!! Thanks for this great recipe!

This turned out great, though I only used 1 or 2 oz. of proschuitto, and I STILL thougth it was pretty salty. I would only add an 1/8 tsp. of salt. GREAT recipe. Thanks for posting.

This was a nice supper served with a salad and garlic bread. I have to admit that I too changed out the basil for oregano because dh doesn't care that much for basil. It worked very nicely and will be one of those recipes that I keep handy. Thanks.

Delicious so easy! I subbed oregano for the basil and used the broiler method of cooking the other side. We had this with Granola Bread Granola Bread--Bread Machine for a wonderful light supper. Thanks Connie for sharing this keeper!
