Savoury apple frittata
Apples make a great partner with the cheese in this delicious frittata recipe. Double quantities if serving as a main meal.
What you need
- 60 ml olive oil
- 1 large potato, peeled and finely sliced
- 2 leeks, trimmed and finely shredded
- 1 large cooking apple, peeled and finely sliced
- seasoning
- 5 medium eggs
- 100 g parmesan cheese
- 3 tsp chopped fresh basil
Method
Preheat grill to a medium heat.
Heat 45 ml of oil in a frying pan and saute the potatoes gently for 10 min or until tender. Remove from the pan and set to one side.
Heat the remaining oil in the frying pan. Add the leeks and apple slices. Fry gently for 4 min until the apple and leeks softened. Season well.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and seasoning. Stir in the potatoes. Transfer to the frying pan. Fry gently for 10 min, taking care that the heat is low to prevent the base from burning.
Sprinkle the cheese and basil over the frittata. Place the frittata under the grill for 4-5 min or until the top is golden brown and the frittata is set. Serve hot or warm, cut into wedges.
