SPRING FRITTATA RECIPE

  • 6 eggs
  • 100g mozzarella, sliced
  • 118 ml milk
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 5 to 7 stalks asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1.5 inch pieces
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 3 green onions, both white and green part cut into 1/2 inch pieces



Method


  1. Whisk the eggs, milk, and salt together in a bowl. Meanwhile, heat the butter on medium low in the oven proof pan. Make sure the butter coats the bottom and the sides of the 9 inch omelette pan.
  2. Saute the green onions and asparagus for 3 minutes, until they are lightly browned. Add the cherry tomatoes and saute for 2 to 3 minutes longer. 
  3. Adjust an oven rack and turn on the grill.
  4. Pour the egg mix into the pan, and cook on medium low until the edges start to look cooked, but the middle is still runny. Add the sliced mozzarella. Cook for 1 to 2 minute more on the stove top.
  5. To firm up the centre until just set, pop the pan under the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Do not overcook! You can even keep the oven door open to check on the progress. Immediately remove from the grill, let cool for 5 minutes on a cooling rack, then flip the frittata onto a plate gently by turning the pan upside down. If it gets stuck at all, you can also use a wooden or metal spatula to loosen it and remove.
  6. Serve with fresh fruit
