Making smoked salmon frittata with the Regis Stone frying pan avoids using extra oil when cooking. Watch my video to see for yourself.
I always keep some small packs of smoked salmon in the freezer. They defrost in barely an hour and are very handy to chuck the chopped pieces into risottos, pasta dishes or as shown here, to make a tasty smoked salmon frittata big enough to feed the family. I love how frittata can be breakfast, brunch, lunch or supper. They’re are truly versatile dish and brilliant for hoovering up leftovers.
Whenever I boil small potatoes it makes sense to do more than you need as the rest can be used in cold potato salad, curries and of course frittata. I’m not entirely sure what the difference is between tortilla and frittata so if you can illuminate me on this, feel free to say in the comments below.
This particular frittata was made in a Regis Stone frying pan by JML. It has super non-stick properties so you can fry in it without adding any extra oil or fat. The surface is anti-scratch and easy to clean. We found the Regis Stone pan heated evenly and our frittata cooked quickly with an even crust. The pan has an attractive speckled surface and can be used on all types of hobs whether gas, electric, ceramic or induction.

Equipment
- frying pan non stick
Ingredients
- 1 leek large, trimmed and sliced
- 250 g cooked potato cut into chunks
- 100 g smoked salmon cut into bitesize pieces
- 100 g peas frozen ones, defrosted
- 4 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1 tbsp fresh chives finely chopped

To Finish
- 1 tbsp reduced-fat crème fraiche
- 1 tsp fresh dill chopped
- pepper to season
- 1 tsp lemon juice (a squeeze of fresh lemon)
Instructions
- Preheat the grill and also pre-heat the pan on a medium heat for around 30-60 seconds.
- First add the chopped leek to the pan. When the leeks are soft add the potato.
- Next add the chopped smoked salmon and the defrosted peas.
- Give it a stir so ingredients are well distributed.
- Beat the chives into the egg and pour over the pan. Coax the egg all around the pan before it starts to cook and then allow to set around the hot ingredients.
- When the egg is nearly cooked, pop the pan under the grill making sure the handle is still sticking out. Grill for one minute.
- After one minute sprinkle over the cheese. Grill for a further minute.
- Serve immediately. A dollop of creme fraiche, some dill and a green salad works well.

I came late to making frittata, though I’ve always loved eating it… Now I love making it, so very versatile!
I don’t think I’d even heard of it until maybe 10 years ago. And yet you’d think we’d have grown up eating it as all the ingredients were available.
Oooh I love me a bit of smoked salmon, and frittata is my go-to weekend meal… I am always in the market for another non-stick frying pan – my current fave is a Stellar hard-anodised one which I ADORE.
Everyone needs a reliable pan!
I’m so tempted to make this for lunch, it looks and sounds delicious!
I think I’d like it for lunch too! Sadly no potatoes ready though!
What a great frittata, full of goodness. I think the difference between a frittata and omelette is that you finish the first in the oven, but the omelette needs to be turned and cooked over heat. Frittatas are so much easier! It looks like an amazing pan and a super family size too.
Oh in that case give me frittata any day. Turning an omelette over sounds like a disaster waiting to happen!
Your photos and layout are brilliant for this, makes the recipe easy to follow.. thankyou for sharing! x
