Courgette Frittata
| Published: 17th June 2008 20:05 |
I first ate this in Spain with an ice-cold beer on the beach as a snack. This versatile dish can be eaten hot or cold. Frittatas can be made with any summer vegetable; why not try asparagus, fresh peas and mint or broad beans and sage or the classic potato with leftover Jersey Royals.
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10-12 minutes
Ingredients
1 Medium courgette, sliced
1 small Onion, sliced
2 tbsp Olive oil
4 Eggs, lightly beaten
large pinch of salt
pinch freshly ground black pepper
Method
1. In a medium sized frying pan gently heat the oil and fry the courgettes and onion until just golden.
2. Beat together the egg, seasoning. Pour over the courgette and onion. Allow to set and depending on how confident you are either turn the frittata out on to a plate and slide it back into the pan face down, or cook the top under a hot grill until it is set.
3. Serve with a fresh green salad simply dressed with vinaigrette.
