      Leek, Potato &Gruyère Frittata

      COOK THE LEEKIn a large ovenproof frying pan, warm  tablespoon of the oil over medium-lowheat. Add the leek and cook, stirring occasionally,until tender,about 5 minutes. Transfer toa plate and set aside.

      COOK THE POTATOESAdd the remaining  tablespoon oil to the pan and return to medium-low heat. Add the sliced potatoes and use a sturdy, heatproof spatula to turn the potatoes, evenly coating them with oil. Cook, turning as needed with the spatula, until tender andlightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the cooked leeks to the potatoes and turn gently to mix.

      COOK THE EGG MIXTUREWhisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. Gently whisk in the cheese. Pour the egg mixture over the potato mixture, distributing the cheese and potatoes evenly in the pan. Cook over medium heat until the eggs begin to set at the edges, –2 minutes. Using the spatula, lift the cooked edge of the frittata and tilt the frying pan to allow the liquid egg on top to flow underneath. Continue cooking, occasionally lifting the frittata and tilting it again, until the top is almost set, about 4 minutes longer. Meanwhile, place a rack in the middleof the oven and preheat the broiler.

      BROWN THE FRITTATAPlace the frittata under the broiler until the frittata puffs and turns golden brown, –2 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
