This hearty frittata is filled with potatoes, asparagus, and leeks, making this the perfect dish to welcome spring. Another big perk is that it’s ready in under 20 minutes. Because of the way leeks are grown, they often have dirt lodged in their layers, so you’ll need to give them a thorough cleaning. Here’s how: rinse them under water to remove any visible dirt, then thinly slice them crosswise, leaving behind the tougher, dark-green leaves. (If they are particularly dirty, rinse them in a colander first.) Place the thinly sliced pieces in a bowl and cover with cold water. Using your hands, agitate the leeks to dislodge any dirt that may be attached.
