well, to cut long story short, I've moved, twice in the past 6 months, did some travelling, and still, in the process of renovating my new pad. and before i can slow down and eat a piece of cake, winter came knocking! however, last weekend we were still blessed with Sydney glorious sunshine, and i wonder how long before the dark and depressing winter will totally took over? so i took some time off my crazy routine and bake a spring frittata. it's simple, easy and took me no time at all!
Spring Frittata
Ingredients:
- 5 big baking potatoes. ( i use desiree )
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 150g smoke salmon
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 big empty stomach !!
- boiled potatoes in a big pot of slightly salted water
- whisk the eggs and milk together.
- throw in 1/2 cup of the cheese, all the peas, and season well with salt and pepper.
- when the potatoes are ready, sliced them up thinly.
- lightly grease a 20cm non-stick cake pan. ( do not use the removable base one!! )
- lay 1/3 of the potato slices on the base of the cake pan, pour half of the egg/milk/salmon mixture, and lay another third of the potatoes, followed by the egg/milk thingy, finished off with the last third of potato slices.
- scatter the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top.
- bake in pre-heated 160 degree oven ( fan force ), for about 50 minutes, or until it's golden brown.
- wait for it to cool down 70 percent before cutting them into slices and serve them warm or cold.
it was the first thing that i bake with my new oven, in my new kitchen. and i enjoy it, with my new mini herb "potted"garden, under the fabulous weather! Yum!!
