Vegetable Frittata Recipe
This gorgeous vegetable frittata recipe is full of beautiful colourful veg, including juicy red capsicum, sweet broccolini, and fresh asparagus spears, all beautifully seasoned with tasty garlic and brown onion.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
- 1 small Brown Onion finely diced
- 0.5 Garlic Clove finely sliced
- 0.5 Red Capsicum deseeded and diced
- 1.5 Cups Broccolini stems and florets sliced into bite sized pieces on the diagonal
- 4 Asparagus spears sliced into bite sized pieces on the diagonal
- 4 Eggs
- 2 tbsp grated cheddar cheese full fat
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
- 0.5 lemon zest and juiced
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven grill to high.
- To begin with, heat the oil in a heavy based 18 cm non-stick oven-proof fry pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and sauté until the onion has softened but not browned. Then add capsicum, broccolini and asparagus. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender.
- Meanwhile, whisk eggs until combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir in grated cheese and parsley. Add egg mixture to the pan, tilting the pan as you pour to ensure the egg mixture spreads evenly over all the vegetables.
- Next, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook the frittata on the stove top for 10-15 minutes until almost firm. Remove from heat and place pan into the oven under a hot grill for a further 5 minutes, until the frittata is golden and puffed.
- Finally, scatter over finely grated zest and finish with a good squeeze of lemon.
- Serve immediately.
