| Prep time | 1 hour |
| 6 | large eggs (room temperature) | |
| fine sea salt and freshly ground pepper (to taste) | ||
| nutmeg (to taste) | ||
| 4 | Cup | loosely packed fresh spinach leaves (rinsed, dried, finely chopped) |
| 1 | Cup | freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese |
| 1 | Tablespoon | extra virgin olive oil |
Preheat oven broiler. Crack eggs into large bowl and beat lightly with fork. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg, spinach, and half the cheese. Beat lightly to combine. In a 9- or 10-in. ovenproof, nonstick omelet pan or skillet heat oil over moderate heat, swirling to coat bottom and sides. When oil ishot (but not smokin), add frittat mixture. Reduce ehat to low, cook slowly, stirring top 2/3 of the mixture (leaving bottom to set, so it doesnt stick), until eggs have formed small curds and frittata is brown on bottom and almost firm in center (about 5 minutes). The top should be very soft. With a spatula, loosen frittata from edges of pan, to prevent sticking later on. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Transfer pan to broiler about 5 inches from heat. Broil until frittata browns lightly on top and is puffy and firm (2-4 minutes). Watch carefully. Remove from broiler, cool 2 minutes. Loosen adn place plate on top of pan. Invert. Cool to room temperature if desired.
