Healthy Green Frittata with Herb Salad Recipe

A Tasty Green Frittata Recipe for the Family

A Frittata is simply like a naked quiche. A quiche without the pastry! It is made up of a substantial number of eggs, dairy in the form of milk or cream, cheese, and fillings. Here I have gone green as I was feeling exceptionally healthy, so I added asparagus, peas (frozen), spring onions & feta for that salty bite. I dressed it with a beautiful Mesclun leaf and herb salad to add another dimension. FYI – it lasted approximately 9 minutes amongst the wolves. The beauty of a frittata though is once you know the ratios of egg : dairy for the size of your pan, you can pretty much add any filling or topping to it. Go classic with cheese, tomato & ham or mix it up and get some kale, mushrooms & goats curd! The pan I used was a Scanpan HaptlQ 28cm frying pan, and the ratio was 10 eggs : 200ml milk or cream, if you were looking at the 26cm pan I would go 8 eggs : 150ml milk or cream.

Ingredients:

  • 10 x Eggs
  • 200ml Milk or Cream
  • 100g of Frozen Peas
  • 1 bunch of chopped Asparagus (typically 8 per bunch)
  • 2 bunches of sliced spring onions
  • 100g of crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 or 2 Jalapeno chopped (depending upon your spice levels)
  • 2 x cloves crushed garlic
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Optional Garnish: mixed leaves, mint, dill, coriander, parsley

Method:

  1. On medium-high heat add 1 tbsp oil to your pan. Cook peas, asparagus, garlic & spring onions for 2 – 3 minutes until softened.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk eggs & milk together and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Add egg mixture to pan, stirring once to spread vegetables out evenly. Leave the eggs alone for 2 – 3 minutes until the sides are set.
  4. Transfer Scanpan HaptlQ to a preheated oven @ 200c and cook for 10 – 12 minutes.
  5. Allow it to cool slightly before serving. Toss garnish ingredients together with a little oil and serve on top/side of the frittata.
Essential Tools
Tips/Tricks
  • I like to fry the veg first before cooking. This help to remove moisture from certain veg like spinach but also allows for even cooking throughout.
Note: Dairy is a big component in making a frittata and having it light and fluffy – don’t forget to whisk the dairy into the eggs
