I usually just put it straight in the oven. . .are there disadvantages in this procedure? One tip before cooking. . . to remove bubbles from egg mixture, lay paper or wax paper on top of the mixture then remove again, this gives the fritata a nice color on the top side. . . hmmm. . .

MM is right-- in a small teflon pan on stovetop, med-low heat, then flip over to a plate then slide back to cook other side. Or if you are not adept at tortilla flipping: cook in a teflon pan then stick pan in your toaster oven, handle sticking out, door open. get the kind of t. oven where you can turn off the bottom heating element. yes tortang giniling with cubed potatoes is comfort food to me too. w white rice, ketchup, banana ketchup, sri racha or sweet chilli sauce. mongo soup side dish. i love baduy food.

They still taste like eggs, but the texture is different, and obviously you don't get the taste of the browned bits of egg and filling. Pero in a pinch, puede na rin.

Just put the flame on low and when half cooked "flip" the frittata like you would a torta (filipino style) and slide that back into the pan to finish cooking. This can be messy but it works. So does just cooking it on one side but cover the pan...this is the least best alternative as you get a near burnt crust on one side and an undercooked other side...
