Frittatas are super versatile. You can put almost anything into them, they can be breakfast, lunch or dinner and they are delicious hot or cold! I’ve included a recipe below, but don’t be afraid to switch in other veg and herbs that are waiting to be eaten in your fridge.
Ingredients
1 -2 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 red pepper
1 small courgette, diced
300g cooked new potatoes, diced
Handful of basil leaves, chopped
1.5 tsp paprika
1 tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
6 eggs
1 ½ tbsp full-fat milk
Method
- 1.Put a medium to large frying pan over mid-heat. Add the oil and wait until shimmering. Put in the chopped onion and soften for 5 minutes.
- 2.Add in the red pepper and courgette, leave for 3-4 minutes. Next add in the cooked potatoes, paprika, salt, pepper and chilli flakes (you may need a little more oil if the potatoes stick to your pan) for 2 minutes.
- 3.Whisk the eggs and milk together, pour into the pan. Quickly stir it into the vegetables and ensure they are evenly distributed. Leave for 5-6 minutes at medium to low heat. Turn on the grill to full heat.
- 4.Take the pan off the heat and put it into the grill. Leave for 5-6 minutes. Check to see if the top has cooked, and when pushed, the frittata is solid but a little bouncy.
Note
Frittatas will save for 2-3 days in the fridge and can be re-heated in the oven or microwave – they are perfect to take into work.
Happy Cooking!
