  Vegetable oil for frying
2 cups 292g / 10ozPotato - peeled and diced
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozOnion - chopped
1 cup 237mlSalsa - any kind you like
  Additional salsa for serving
1 cup 237mlJack - grated
  OR cheddar cheese
6   Eggs
2 tablespoons 30mlMilk
1 teaspoon 5mlSalt
1/4 teaspoon 1.3mlPepper

Recipe Instructions

Heat the oil in a skillet. Add the potato and onion and fry until golden, about 15 minutes. (Or you can boil the potatoes until they are barely tender, then dice and fry.) Add the salsa. If you are using a tomato-based salsa, let it simmer for 5 minutes or so to cook off any excess liquid. Remove from the heat. Preheat the oven to 400F.

Sprinkle the grated cheese over the potatoes and onions. Break the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt and pepper and beat lightly. Pour this mixture over the potatoes. Bake the frittata in the skillet until the eggs have puffed up, the center is set and the edges are golden, about 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with additional salsa on the side.
