Version v1 current · History (1) ·
Serves 3
Ingredients
- 300 g cherry tomatoes
- 35 ml olive oil
- salt
- 300 g zucchini (on large holes of a box grater)
- 300 g small waxy potatoes (boiled until just tender, sliced into 5 mm rounds)
- 1 red onion (halved and thinly sliced)
- black pepper
- 6 eggs
- 100 g feta (crumbled)
- 200 g crusty bread (sliced)
Steps
- Preheat oven to 200°C.
- Toss cherry tomatoes (300 g) with olive oil (10 ml) and a pinch of salt on one half of a sheet pan. Roast for ⏲ 20 minutes until blistered and starting to collapse. They go in first — the frittata finishes faster.
- Meanwhile, grate zucchini (300 g) into a clean tea towel and squeeze out as much water as possible over the sink. This is critical — skipping it makes the frittata soggy.
- Heat olive oil (15 ml) in a oven-safe pan over medium. Add small waxy potatoes (300 g) in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for ⏲ 3 minutes until the undersides are golden.
- Add red onion (1) and the squeezed zucchini. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for ⏲ 5 minutes until the onion softens and any remaining moisture from the zucchini cooks off.
- Whisk together eggs (6) with black pepper and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Pour evenly over the vegetables in the pan. Scatter feta (60 g) over the top. Cook on the hob undisturbed for ⏲ 3 minutes until the edges are set but the centre is still wobbly.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for ⏲ 8–10 minutes until just set in the centre and lightly golden on top. A skewer inserted in the middle should come out clean.
- Remove the tomatoes from the oven when blistered. Scatter feta (40 g) over the tomatoes and return to the oven for the last ⏲ 2 minutes of the frittata's bake time, just to soften the feta slightly.
- Slice the frittata into wedges at the table. Serve with the roasted tomatoes alongside and crusty bread (200 g) for dipping into the tomato juices. Drizzle a little olive oil (10 ml) over the tomatoes if they look dry.
