Hello Claire

 

Holds hand up

 

Pleased you liked the picture of the frittata.

 

I posted it into Omlet for the competition and won a set of the badges that get a mention in the news letter

 

The recipe came about as we had a few bits and bobs left in the fridge and loads of eggs, so I had a bit of a ready steady cook moment and came up with this....

 

Asparagus Frittata

 

 

(If you have any loft over cooked ham you can add it to the pan to warm through with the potatoes and onion so that it finishes cooking in the oven).

 

2 medium potatoes and 1 onion peeled and chopped into 1/4 inch dice and softened in a lidded pan with a tablespoon of oil for about 3 minutes. Keep shaking the pan to stop the potatoes from sticking.

 

Arrange the softened veg in a single layer in a non-stick flan case (not a spring form or loose bottom or the egg mixture will leak), I used a 10 inch silicone flan case.

 

Beat 3 eggs and pour them over the potato and onion mixture and season well.

 

Trim the asparagus and arrange it in a nice pattern over the egg mixture.

(you can also add the trimmings to the egg mixture and mix it among the other veg to add a spot more colour)

 

Beat another 2 eggs and pour them over the asparagus.

 

Press all the ingredients into the egg mixture.

 

Season again with salt and pepper.

 

Place in an oven at 180 degrees for about half an hour.

 

Keep checking as you want a nice set and browned appearance.

 

Can be eaten warm or cold.

 

I served mine with lettuce from the garden for a supper dish for the 2 of us, and there was plenty left for lunch boxes.

 

Kind regards,

 

Christine
