Steps for Preparing the Frittata Pizza
To start, prepare a mix of chopped celery, carrot, and onion. Sauté a couple of tablespoons in a pan with a drizzle of oil. Add the tomato sauce, salt, and a pinch of sugar and cook on low heat for at least twenty minutes.
Work the whole eggs with salt, pepper, and grated lemon zest. Pour the mixture into a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake in a static oven at 356°F for about 20 minutes.
Remove the frittata from the oven. Top with tomato sauce, very finely sliced mozzarella, and a few basil leaves. Bake for about another 5 minutes, just enough time to melt the cheese.
Storage
You can keep the frittata in the fridge for a couple of days.
