Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic, minced
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper (Capsicum), finely chopped
  • 1 Carrot, grated
  • 190g (1 bunch of 8 stems) Broccolini * Can replace with broccoli
  • 150g (1 cup) Peas
  • 6 Eggs
  • 2 tbsp Whole Milk * Can replace with cream if you prefer
  • 35g (½ cup) Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper
  • Salt (to taste) *Do not add salt if serving to baby.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 220c / 425f
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, cheese, herbs and seasoning. 
  • Heat oil in a 10" cast iron pan, add the onion and garlic and cook for approx 5 mins. Add the bell pepper (capsicum) and carrot and cook for a further minute. Add the broccolini and cook for a further min. Stir in the peas. 
  • Give your egg mixture a final whisk and pour the mixture over the vegetables. Stir briefly to distribute the mixture evenly across the pan. 
  • Cook on the stove top for approx 1-2 minutes. Just until the edge of the frittata has turned lighter in colour. 
  • Transfer to the oven and bake for approx 8-10 mins, ideally, you should take the frittata out of the oven when the middle still has a SLIGHT jiggle to it or when it is just set and no more.
  • Cool in the pan for 5 mins and then slice and serve. 

Notes

If cooking for a baby make sure to cook the vegetables until very soft and cut to age-appropriate size.
