An Easy Vegetable Frittata
Cook watery vegetables before adding eggs. Whisk the eggs with a splash of milk and a small pinch of salt, then pour into an oven-safe skillet.
What you need
- Eggs
- Cooked vegetables
- A little milk
- Optional grated cheese
Put it into practice
Cook gently until the edges begin to set, then finish in a moderate oven until the center is fully set. Use a handle cover when removing the skillet.
The detail that makes a difference
Avoid overfilling the pan with vegetables. Too many fillings can prevent the egg mixture from holding together cleanly.
Make it work in your kitchen
Start with a small batch and taste as you go. Keep a note of the ingredients and proportions you prefer so you can repeat the result. For substitutions, consider texture and cooking time as well as flavor; a softer ingredient often needs less time than a firm one.
