Ingredients
  

=====Frittata=====

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup diced green onions -- white and light green parts only
  • 1/4 cup minced jalapeño pepper

=====

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • freshly ground black pepper

=====

  • 2 tablespoons butter

=====Sambal Mayo=====

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sambal

=====

  • 2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
  • 1/2 cup grated Asiago cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400º F.
  • Heat a medium-sized ovenproof skillet with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the oil to the pan. Swirl to coat. Add the corn, green onions, and jalapeño to the pan. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove the mixture to a bowl. Wipe the skillet clean with paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until frothy. Add the corn mixture, stirring to combine. Stir in the salt and pepper.
  • Return the skillet to medium heat and melt the butter. Swirl to coat the pan. Add the egg mixture to the pan. Lower the heat and cook for 4 minutes, without stirring. The eggs will start to set around the edges.
  • Cover the pan and place in the oven. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until puffed and cooked through.
  • Mix the mayonnaise and sambal together in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle the baked frittata with the Italian parsley and the cheese. Serve with the sambal mayo on the side.
