Spinach and Feta Frittata
INGREDIENTS:
- 10 eggs
- 150 g baby or English spinach
- 1 small red onion
- 60g feta cheese (substitute with goat cheese, cottage cheese, or ricotta cheese)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- Olive oil spray
- Spring onions, garnish
- Salt and pepper, to taste
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 220°C and spray a cast iron skillet/oven dish with olive oil, making sure to spray the sides and edges.
- Prepare vegetables by slicing the onion into small pieces and roughly chop the spinach.
- Crack all the eggs into a large bowl and whisk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Crumble in ¾ of the feta cheese and add it in the eggs.
- Over medium heat, sauté the onion in a pan with olive oil. Once translucent, add the spinach and cook for about 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and add to the bowl of eggs. With a spoon, mix together very quickly so the eggs don’t scramble and start to cook.
- Pour mixture into the greased oven dish/or cast iron pan ensuring its level and evenly spread.
- Top it with the remaining crumbled feta cheese and some chopped spring onions. Then place it in the oven to cook for 22-25 minutes.
- Make sure it is cooked all the way, by doing a toothpick test. It’s done if the toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool down and set for at least 10 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped spring onions on top. Serve hot for breakfast and enjoy!
