Frittata The Cuisinart® Multicooker really can do it all. Be sure to have potholders on hand when inverting the frittata onto a serving plate. Makes 6 servings 1 tablespoon olive oil ¼ to ½ medium leek, thinly sliced ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, divided Pinch freshly ground black pepper 8 large eggs ½ cup milk (any fat variety) Nonstick cooking spray ½ cup shredded cheese 1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives 1. Put the olive oil in the cooking pot of the Cuisinart® Multicooker. Select Sauté/Brown. Set the temperature to Low, the time for 5 minutes, and press Start. 2. Once the unit is preheated and the oil is hot, add the leek with a pinch each of the salt and pepper. Sauté until the leek is softened, but does not pick up any color. Remove and cool slightly. 3. Put the eggs, milk, and remaining salt into a large mixing bowl. Whisk until combined. 4. Lightly coat a round ceramic baking/ casserole dish, no larger than 7 inches in diameter, with the nonstick cooking spray. Add the egg mixture and then stir in the sautéed leek. Top with the cheese and chives. Cover with aluminum foil that has also been coated with nonstick cooking spray. 5. Put the rack into the cooking pot of the Cuisinart® Multicooker with 2 cups of water. Cut a piece of aluminum foil that is about 24 inches long. Fold in half lengthwise, then fold in half again two more times to create a strip about 24 inches in length and 2 inches wide to make a cradle. 6. Put the filled baking dish in the center of the foil strip and then carefully lift, and transfer to the rack in the cooking pot. 7. Secure the lid and select Custom. Set the pressure to Low, the time for 10 minutes, and press Start. 8. Once the tone sounds, press the Steam Release button to quickly release pressure. 9. When pressure is completely released, carefully open lid and, using potholders, lift the foil cradle and casserole out of the cooking pot. Uncover and invert frittata onto a serving plate and serve immediately.

To have it a little less done, just reduce the time slightly, about 4 minutes for a mediumcooked egg. Makes 6 hard-boiled eggs 1 cup water 6 large eggs Ice bath (bowl of water filled with ice cubes) 1. Insert the rack into the cooking pot of the Cuisinart® Multicooker and add the water. 2. Using a safety pin, pierce a small hole in the bottom (the larger part) of each egg. Place the eggs on the rack. 3. Secure the lid and select Custom. Set the pressure to Low, the time for 6 minutes, and press Start. 4. Once the tone sounds, press the Steam Release button to quickly release pressure. 5. When the pressure is completely released, carefully open the lid and remove the eggs. Immediately place the cooked eggs into the ice bath to prevent overcooking. 6. If not using or consuming the eggs immediately, store in refrigerator until ready to serve.

This has the classic flavors, but we encourage topping with bacon bits, chives, or spices to finish. Makes 12 servings 6 hard-boiled eggs 3 tablespoons mayonnaise 1 tablespoon olive oil 20
