I always keep a supply of canned beef in our pantry as it is my go-to when I am pressed for time or too lazy to cook an elaborate meal, but I want something a bit more filling than a sandwich for dinner.

I make so many delicious nashville filipino food dishes with this canned meat such as nilaga, sinigang, spaghetti, pandesal, and my favorite of all, frittata. This egg dish is easy to make yet so filling and delicious. It’s a protein-rich and energy-packed way to start your day!

One popular way to cook canned corned beef is sauteed with potatoes. You can use leftover ginisang corned beef to make this frittata or better yet, make a fresh batch!

Although you can use any brand of corned beef you like, I personally prefer the chunky variety. I also recommend using frozen green peas instead of canned as they have a brighter, more appetizing color and a less salty taste.

Cooking tips

  • Beat the eggs just until blended as overbeating can introduce too much air which can result in a dry and unappetizing spongy texture.
  • Do not overcook and bake until barely set. The frittata will continue to cook in the pan’s residual heat.
  • If using a smaller or larger pan, adjust the number of eggs according to the size of the pan. For example, use 6 eggs for a 6-inch pan, 8 eggs for an 8-inch pan.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet or an oven-safe pan as the frittata will finish cooking in the oven. To finish on the stove instead of the oven, lower heat, cover, and cook until barely set.
