Frittata
This recipe is a great way to use up left over vegetables. You can use
roast vegetables, cooked cabbage, broccoli, carrot, peas, beans...
anything!! Please note that all measurements here are approximate
because it depends on the size of your frypan and the amount of
leftovers.
Please Note: You must use a frypan that can be put into the oven
(no plastic handle) !! If you don't have a frypan you can put into
your oven you could transfer the mixture (after sautéing into a pie
dish or individual muffin trays (silicon is best to stop sticking).
1 small onion chopped (or half a large onion)
2 rashers of chopped bacon or ham (optional)
1-2 cups approx of left over vegetables
1 tablespoon butter
4 eggs
1/4 cup of cream (approx)
Salt and pepper
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of curry powder (optional)
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Method:
Sauté the onion in the butter, add the bacon and cook a little longer
then add the curry powder (if using it). Make sure to use a pan that
can go into the oven - no plastic handle!!
Add the vegetables and heat through.
Pour over the eggs previously beaten with half the cheese, cream and seasoning.
Cook through a little on the stove top, top with remaining cheese and
then put into a moderate oven until the top is puffed and brown. You
can either use fan bake for this for approx 8 minutes or grill.
Whatever works for you and your oven.

Hi Jan!
I make something very similar with the addition of some chopped spanish Chorizo sausage into the mix-with the addition of extra mature cheddar it's a mega tasty dinner that even my kids love!
Best wishes

Thanks for the link - please remember I'm all about easy and simple!! I also don't make buns and pizza etc often but these are the types of recipes that people ask for most often. Let's face it, most other "real" food is low carb anyway.
Hi Paul
Yes chorizo is great. This recipe is definitely one for the family to enjoy.
Thanks and all the best
