3/4 cups cream or milk (, full fat best (Note 1))
1/2 tsp salt and pepper, each
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese ((cheddar, tasty, or other of choice))
100g/3 oz mushroom, sliced ((I used 1 large, optional))
100g / 3oz feta (, crumbled (optional))
2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1.5 tsp mixed dried herbs ((or use any of choice))

2 zucchinis (, sliced 1.25 / 0.5" thick rounds)
1 large red capsicum ((bell pepper), sliced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F (200°C fan).
  • Toss vegetables on tray with oil, garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Spread out.
  • Roast 25 minutes, undisturbed (no flipping). Remove and cool for at least 5 minutes before using.
  • Lower oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan).
  • Grease & line pan: Spray a 19 x 30cm / 8 x 10" rectangle or 22 cm / 9" square pan lightly with oil, then line with parchment paper with overhang. (Note 3)
  • Egg mixture: Whisk eggs, cream, salt and pepper in a bowl.
  • Assemble: Spread 2/3 of the vegetables in the prepared pan. Pour over egg mixture, sprinkle with cheese, then top with remaining vegetables.
  • Topping: Top with crumbled feta, then mushrooms. Drizzle mushrooms with a touch of olive oil (makes it brown).
  • Bake: Bake 40 minutes until centre is just set.
  • Rest & serve: Rest frittata 5 minutes in the pan. Use paper overhang to lift out of pan, then slice into squares and serve.
  • Serving later: Cool on rack and remove paper from underneath (otherwise base gets soggy). Cut then refrigerate up to 5 days, or freeze. Reheat in microwave.

EASY VEGETABLE FRITTATA



Easy Vegetable Frittata image

The best frittata has a texture similar to custard. Whisking in a bit of full-fat dairy like cream, half-and-half or even whole milk is essential for the best texture. Also, play it safe when baking the frittata and check it a few minutes before it's supposed to be done. Perfectly cooked frittatas look barely set on top and tremble - like jello - after giving the pan a gentle shake.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 large eggs
5 tablespoons heavy cream, half-and-half or whole milk
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheese, like Gruyere, cheddar or fontina
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 medium zucchini, sliced into thin coins
1/2 medium onion, sliced
1 medium bell pepper, sliced
1 1/2 cups packed baby spinach
Chopped or torn fresh herbs like parsley, chives or dill

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with cream, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, pepper, and the cheese.
  • Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe 10-inch skillet (non-stick or a well-seasoned cast iron pan are best).
  • Add the zucchini, onions, and bell pepper. Cook, stirring every once and a while until the onions are soft and the zucchini and bell peppers have a little color; about 5 minutes.
  • Season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt then add the spinach. Toss the spinach around the pan until it's ever so slightly wilted and bright green.
  • Turn the heat to low. Give the egg mixture another whisk then pour into the skillet. Shimmy the pan back and forth a bit to distribute the egg around the vegetables.
  • When the edges of the frittata begin to set and turn lighter in color, slide the skillet into the preheated oven; about 1 minute.
  • Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the eggs are barely set and the frittata trembles - like jello - when you give the pan a gentle shake. Keep an eye on it as it bakes and check the frittata a few minutes before it's supposed to be done. You are not looking for a brown top, just one that looks cooked and barely set.
  • Serve the frittata hot or cold with fresh herbs on top.

OLIVE HUMMUS



Olive Hummus image

Salty kalamatas and pimento-stuffed green olives lend a little pizzazz to plain ol' hummus.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 15-ounce can chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans) drained, but reserve the liquid
1/3 cup tahini
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (from 1-2 lemons)
2 minced garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste
3/4 cup kalamata olives (pitted)
3/4 cup green olives with pimento
Olive oil (smoked paprika, and additional sliced olives for garnish)

Steps:

  • To the bowl of a food processor or high-powered blender, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse, adding the liquid from the beans as needed to keep things moving, until the hummus is very smooth.
  • Add the olives and pulse until chopped. I like to whirr them almost completely in; you may prefer a chunkier hummus. Taste and add additional salt if desired.
  • Scoop into a serving bowl and top with additional sliced olives, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
  • Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

BLACK OLIVE HUMMUS



Black Olive Hummus image

This is a sesame-free hummus that I make for a friend with allergies. It is a huge hit. You can either use pitted kalamata olives, or for a more intense flavor, you can buy black olive paste at most mediterranean groceries. Marmarabirlik salted black olive paste is my favorite.

HERB-AND-OLIVE FRITTATA



Herb-and-Olive Frittata image

In this recipe, herbs are the focus, but to use herbs on a grand scale, it helps to know which ones work in that role and which ones don't. Parsley, obviously, works in abundance: it's clean-tasting, pleasantly grassy and almost never overwhelming. You can add literally a bunch (bunches!) of it to salad, soup, eggs, pasta, grains or beans. The same is largely true of basil, and you can use other mild herbs - chervil, chives, cilantro, dill, shiso - by at least the handful. (Mint is also useful but will easily take over a dish if you add too much of it.) I put most other herbs - epazote, lavender, marjoram and oregano, rosemary, sage, tarragon and thyme - in the category of strong herbs, which must be used more sparingly than mild herbs. You usually don't want to use more than a tablespoon or so of strong herbs in a dish. This frittata uses generous amounts of both parsley and basil and lesser amounts of dill, mint, rosemary or thyme.

Categories     breakfast, easy, quick, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 cup chopped black olives, preferably oil-cured
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or thyme
8 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Salt
black pepper

Steps:

  • Put the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the olives and herbs and cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften and become dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Meanwhile, beat together the eggs, milk, flour and some salt and pepper.
  • Turn heat to low and pour the egg mixture into the skillet, using a spoon if necessary to evenly distribute the herbs and olives. Cook, undisturbed, until the eggs are just set, 5 to 10 minutes. (You can set the top further by putting the pan in an oven at 350 for a few minutes or by running it under the broiler for a minute or two.) Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
