Pressure Cooker Denver Frittata

Equipment Needed

• 6 qt electric pressure cooker (I used a 6 qt Mealthy MultiPot)
• 6in porcelain souffle dish
• measuring cup
• silicone vegetable steamer with handles
• cutting board
• knife

Ingredients

• 7 large eggs
• 8 oz cooked ham (I used a Smithfield ham steak)
• 1 green pepper, chopped
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 cup shredded cheese
• 1/2 cup light cream
• salt and pepper to taste
• olive oil

Instructions

Cut the ham.

Cut up the peppers and onions.

Plug in the electric pressure cooker.

Put the eggs into a small mixing bowl.

Add the cream and shredded cheese into the bowl with the eggs and mix.

Set the pressure cooker to cook on saute.

Place a thin layer of olive oil on the bottom of the pot.

Place the pepper and onion into the pot and saute them.

Once the peppers and onions have sauteed, remove the pot from the cooker.

Move the peppers and onions to a medium sized mixing bowl.

Add the ham to the pepper and onions and stir well.

Pour the egg mixture over the pepper, onion and ham.

Spray the souffle dish with nonstick cooking spray.

Take the egg mixture and place it in the souffle dish.

Put the vegetable steamer trivet into the bottom of the pot.

Cover the filled souffle dish with foil and place it onto the vegetable steamer trivet.

Place the lid onto the pressure cooker and close to seal.

Set the pressure cooker to cook on manual high pressure for 12 minutes.

Once the cooking cycle has completed, do a quick pressure release.

Remove the souffle dish from the pressure cooker and let sit for 5 minutes.

Carefully remove the foil from the souffle dish.

If you choose you can serve directly from the souffle dish. Or, if you want the frittata out of the souffle dish, place a plate on top of the frittata. Flip the souffle dish and plate together and your frittata should be sitting on the plate, leaving you with an empty souffle dish.

Serve immediately.
