Heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add red onion; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Pour reserved egg mixture over onions; cook, pulling back edges with a rubber spatula, until they begin to set, about 15 minutes. Bake in oven until set in center, about 20 minutes. Transfer from oven to a board. Let cool 5 minutes; run a spatula around sides and underneath the frittata, and ease out of pan onto the board. Cut into 12 wedges. Serve.
I had this at a friend's once and tracked the recipe down to make it for my own brunch with friends. It was just as amazing the second time around. The only adjustment I would make is with the salt - 1 tsp is far too much, especially with the saltiness of the smoked salmon. Next time I will either reduce by half or won't add it at all.
Is the smoked salmon used in this recipe the same kind of smoked salmon you put on top of a bagel?
I loved this recipe and it was well received by my very picky family.-Eden
