Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup diced cooked ham or bacon (optional)
  • 1 cup diced vegetables of your choice (e.g., mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar, mozzarella, feta)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (e.g., parsley, chives)

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Heat the olive oil in a non-stick oven-safe skillet over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    If using, add the diced ham or bacon to the skillet and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Add the diced vegetables of your choice to the skillet and cook until they are tender, about 3-4 minutes.

  7. 7

    Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, ensuring it evenly covers the vegetables and meat.

  8. 8

    Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.

  9. 9

    Cook the Frittata on the stovetop for 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set.

  10. 10

    Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the Frittata is set and slightly golden on top.

  11. 11

    Remove the skillet from the oven and let the Frittata cool for a few minutes.

  12. 12

    Carefully slide a spatula around the edges of the skillet to loosen the Frittata.

  13. 13

    Slice the Frittata into wedges and garnish with fresh herbs.
