Vegetable Frittata
Vegetable frittata makes the perfect Sunday brunch, Very light but substantial and definitely healthy. The veggies radiate this amazing aroma when you are preparing and grilling in the oven just adds to the anticipation.
After so many weekend parties with non veggie stuff, we decide to go on veggies this week. So far so good.
How to make:
Onion 1(finely chopped)
1 carrot(grated)
1 courgette (grated)
few green chillies, finely chopped
cheddar cheese 1/3rd cup
couple of tbsp of olive oil
5 eggs, lightly beaten
heat 2 tbsp of oil and cook onion and chillies for few minutes or until onions are soft.Add carrot and courgette and cook over low flame for few min, make sure its covered.
Tranfer to a bowl and let it cool
After that add cheese,salt and pepper to the veggies and mix well.Now add slighly beaten eggs.
Take another couple of tbsp of oil and add this frittata mixture and shake the pan to spread it evenly.Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until set almost all the way through.
Brown the top under a preheated hot grill for couple of minutes.
Take it out of the grill, cut into wedges and serve with salad and roasted potatoes.
Wonderful brunch on a nice summer day.We thoroughly enjoyed it
Stumble it!
