Prepare a pot of water to boil for the spaghetti.

Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to a small pot and heat it up, then cook the passata di pomodoro on low heat for about 10 minutes.

Once the water is boiling, add the spaghetti and cook until al dente.

Drain the spaghetti and place it in a bowl, then add the passata di pomodoro and mix well, letting it cool.

In a separate bowl, crack open 3 eggs, add pepper, salt, and a pinch of nutmeg, then whisk the eggs.

Add the diced prosciutto cotto to the eggs, then add small pieces of smoked provola cheese.

Once the spaghetti has cooled, add the egg mixture with the prosciutto and mix everything well, then grate some Parmigiano cheese on top and mix again.

In a large skillet, heat extra virgin olive oil until hot, then add the spaghetti mixture and level it with a spoon.

Cover with a lid and cook on medium-low heat for 10 minutes.

After about 6-7 minutes, flip the frittata and cook for another 5 minutes on the other side.
