This delicious Italian omelette is made with chunks of smoked salmon and creamy cream cheese, which is heaped into a mixture of beaten eggs. A little fresh dill perfectly complements the flavor combination of the delicate cheese and savory fish. A proper frittata is cooked over low heat to ensure the omelette cooks through and is fluffy and airy. Therefore, it's first fried in a pan and then finished in the oven. Make sure you have a versatile frying pan. This dish looks very sophisticated, but it's ready in minutes. A great breakfast option.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Position the oven rack in the middle position and preheat to 190°C.
In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, dill, salt, pepper, and green onions. Using two spoons or your fingers, break the cream cheese into small pieces. Stir the cheese and smoked salmon into the egg mixture.

Heat olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and gently toss to coat the filling. Cook until the frittata is set on the bottom but not browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the frittata is set on top, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes.
Transfer the frittata to a large plate. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
