Frittata is the Italian name for what the Spaniards call a tortilla. Basically, it’s a very dense omelette made with vegetables included as a core ingredient, rather than simply as a stuffing. In Spain, you’re likely to get a potato and white onion tortilla, and in Italy you’re more likely to get a spinach frittata.
