Frittata

It's Bin Night and there is a fridge full of little bits of leftover everything, and you don’t want to throw anything away. What do you do?

The Frittata is a great way to manage your waste all you need is eggs, cream (I buy the UHT cream for these occasions), cheese of any kind of variety and combination and whatever you have in the fridge.

I always start with an onion as my base and just build on that. Fry up the leftovers in a large frying pan on medium heat and then pour in your egg and cheese mixture. Resist the urge to stir.

For the egg mix, add your cheese and seasoning (Salt and pepper, thyme, tarragon) together with the eggs and cream and whisk.

Once the egg mix is in the pan leave it to cook for 5min to get in cooking from the base. Then place into the oven under the grill to cook from the top.

TOP TIP: don’t cook it all the way through. Take it out when there is still a little wobble. Let it sit in the pan for 5 min out of the oven to cook through then turn out onto a board or plate. A classic error is overcooking your eggs.
