lidded stovetop type or non-lidded oven baked? Have you tried a fave both ways, and if so, which yielded the better result? I'm getting to I hate to light the oven.

This is the first time I've heard of baking a frittata covered. If
you don't want to light the oven, why not do it in a skillet on the
stovetop? I make individual tortas, so flipping isn't an issue for
me. I cook the first side in a 6 inch pan and flip it into a
(preheated) 8 inch pan. If you don't want to do that, you could start
it on the stove and finish browning under the broiler. No baking or
flipping required.

No -- I said 'NON-lidded' oven baked.

Yeah, I know - but wanted to know what other people preferred. Seems I get a dryer product when done stovetop. It's faster tho, for sure.

You're obviously over cooking it. Pay better attention and it won't
be dry.

I've come to the conclusion that, with my electric stove, I need to hack about 5 degrees and 5 minutes off most instructions, for either oven or stove top cooking.
