Artichoke Frittata

Artichoke Frittata... this is so easy to put together and bake in a cast iron pan.

• 5-6 Artichoke - small to medium
• 1 Cups Grated Pecorino cheese
• 1/2 Cup Plain bread crumbs
• 5 Eggs
• 3 Cloves garlic - finely chopped
• 1/2 Tbs  Fresh mint - finely chopped
• 1/4 Cup Milk
• EV Olive oil
• Salt & Pepper

Clean the artichoke by removing the external leaves. Wash and cut into thin slices.
In a bowl, add the slices artichoke, bread crumbs, cheese, garlic and mint and mix well. Add salt and pepper as desired.
In a separate bowl beat the 5 eggs with the milk. Add the eggs to the mixture and mix very well. Add 2 Tbs of EV olive oil and continue mixing.
Pre-heat the oven to 400F.
In a 9" cast iron skillet add 1/2 cup of EV olive oil and put on the stove. Once the oil is hot, add the mixture to the pan and quickly spread it evenly.
Let it cook for about 2-3 minutes on the stove and then transfer the pan to the top level of your oven.
Let it cook for 50 minutes (or once the top colors to your liking)  and you will have a perfect and crispy Frittata.
