Ingredients for Make-ahead Spanish frittata
900 g yukon gold potatoes, unpeeled, cut into 1.25 cm pieces
4 shallots, thinly sliced crosswise
2.5 ml smoked spanish paprika
60 ml extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for pan
16 g kosher salt, divided
12 large eggs
240 ml soured cream
10 ml dijon mustard
How to make Make-ahead Spanish frittata
Preheat the oven to 200°C (fan 180°C).
Toss the potatoes, shallots, paprika, 60 ml of oil, and 1½ tsp of salt in a large baking tray.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown. Let them cool slightly.
Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C (fan 140°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sour cream, mustard, and the remaining 1¼ tsp of salt.
Stir in the potato mixture until well combined.
Line the same baking tray with parchment paper, allowing some overhang on two sides for easy lifting.
Grease the parchment generously with oil, then pour the egg mixture into the tray.
Bake the frittata for 30–35 minutes, until the centre is just set, the surface is puffed, and the edges are lightly golden brown. Let it cool for at least 30 minutes.
Run a knife around the edges of the frittata, then use the parchment overhang to carefully lift it out of the tray and transfer it to a cutting board.
Allow the frittata to cool to room temperature, then cut it into your desired shape.
Do Ahead: The frittata can be made up to 5 days in advance. Chill it whole or cut into pieces in an airtight container.
