Servings: persons

1
Preheat the oven to 350.

In a small saucepan, simmer the garlic in the olive oil over moderate heat until soft and golden, 7 minutes; discard the garlic.

In a pie plate, toss the diced bread with 1 tablespoon of garlic oil.
4
Bake for 6 minutes, or until crisp.
5
Leave the oven on.
6
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the Parmesan, cream, chives and tarragon; season with salt and pepper.
7
Whisk in 1/4 cup of the garlic oil.
8
In a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat the remaining garlic oil until shimmering.
9
Whisk the eggs again, then add to the skillet and cook without stirring for 1 minute, until just set around the edge.
10
Using a rubber spatula, lift the edge and tilt the pan so the uncooked egg seeps underneath.
11
Continue until the eggs are mostly set, 3 minutes.
12
Spoon the ricotta in small dollops over the frittata; season with salt and pepper.

Sprinkle with the croutons.
