Frittata-serves 3-4 kids or 2 adults
This is my go-to recipe for a very easy, nutritious meal. The possibilities are endless-just use what you enjoy eating.
Ingredients:
6 large, free range eggs
50ml semi-skimmed milk
Sea Salt
White pepper
Small knob butter
1/2 small onion, finely diced/2 spring onions, cut into small slices
100g grated cheddar
1/2 tbsp Italian herbs
For the vegetables, use what you have. If you have none, use 2 cubes of frozen, defrosted spinach. For this recipe, I have used asparagus. I also sometimes use boiled small potatoes, cubed.
6 asparagus spears, woody ends removed and cut into small pieces.
Method:
-
Melt the butter in a medium frying pan, with an oven-proof handle.
-
Add the onions and a pinch of sea salt. Saute for a few mins, until the onions begin to soften.
-
Now turn on your oven grill to high.
-
Add the vegetables and stir.
-
Whilst the vegetables are cooking, crack all the eggs into a bowl and add the milk. Whisk well to combine and season with salt and white pepper. Add the herbs.
-
Pour this mixture over the vegetables.
-
Once the egg has begun to set slightly and you can see the edges starting to curl, sprinkle over the cheese and take the frying pan over to the grill.
-
Grill for around 4-5 mins until the frittata is set and the cheese beginning to brown.
-
Use a pizza cutter to slice into wedges. I often serve this in pita bread for a complete meal.
