-
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 ½ cups thinly sliced red onion
1 ½ cups chopped courgettes
7 large eggs, beaten
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons chopped soft sun-dried tomatoes
¼ cup thinly sliced fresh basil
Instructions:
Heat oil in a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and courgettes and cook, stirring frequently, until soft around 3-4 minutes
Meanwhile, whisk eggs, salt and pepper in a bowl. Pour the eggs over the vegetables in the pan. Cook, lifting the edges to allow uncooked egg from the middle to flow underneath, until nearly set, about 2 minutes
Arrange the sun-dried tomatoes on top and place the pan under the grill until the eggs are slightly browned (around 90 secs to 2 minutes)
Let stand for 3 minutes
Top with basil or herb of choice
To release the frittata from the pan, run a spatula around the edge, then underneath, until you can slide or lift it out onto a cutting board or serving plate.
Cut into 4 slices and serve - so simple and delicious!
