INSPIRED BY
An original breakfast that turns a small frittata into a crisp, toast-ready meal.
Story
Casey reaches for this when breakfast needs to carry everyone through a busy morning. Thin potatoes bring a crisp little edge, while herbs, Parmesan, and lemony yogurt keep the eggs bright. It is just as good served in wedges at the table as it is tucked onto toast.

Ingredients
- 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced 1/8 inch thick
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 4 slices seeded bread
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400 F and arrange the potato slices on a sheet pan with 1 tablespoon of the oil, half the salt, and the pepper.
- Roast the potatoes for 12 minutes, turning once, until the edges are crisp and the centers are tender.
- Whisk the eggs, milk, Parmesan, scallions, parsley, and remaining salt in a bowl.
- Warm the remaining oil in an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, pour in the eggs, and arrange the roasted potatoes over the surface.
- Cook for 2 minutes, then transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 5 to 6 minutes, until the frittata is puffed and set.
- Stir the yogurt with lemon zest and juice, toast the bread, and serve slices of frittata on toast with a spoonful of yogurt.
Chef Tips
- Slice the potatoes very thinly so they finish with the eggs.
- Use a rubber spatula around the skillet edge before cutting the frittata.
- Add a pinch of smoked paprika if you want a warmer flavor.
Cook's Notes
- Slice potatoes with a mandoline if you have one.
- Use an oven-safe skillet.
- Let the frittata rest for two minutes before cutting.
