This is a wonderful frittata anytime of day or night. My grandfather used to make frittatas quite often. Instead of finishing a frittata under the broiler he would cook it halfway, put a plate on top of the pan, flip the pan over, and slide the frittata back into the pan to cook the other side. Sometimes a frittata would stick; other times the hot oil would drip on him as he performed this maneuver. It was during these moments that I learned all the really good Italian curse words I still use to this day.

Ingredients

  • 6 slices bacon , chopped
  • 1 potato , peeled and sliced into thin 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons water , or as needed
  • 1 clove garlic , thinly sliced

    Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
