Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 6 eggs beaten
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 100 g goat's cheese with rind
  • 100 g green peas
  • 1 handful basil leaves
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper
  • 50 g butter

Method
 

  1. Turn on the grill.
  2. Dice the bacon and slice the goat cheese 5mm thick.
  3. Melt the butter in an oven-proof saucepan and fry the bacon until crisp. Add the peas and cook for 1-2 minutes more.
  4. Add the chopped basil leaves and pour over the eggs, tilt the pan to spread the egg evenly. When the egg is jelly-like, place the goat cheese slices on top. Season to taste and sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top.
  5. Put the pan under the grill for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is golden and starts to melt.
  6. Slice the frittata into wedges and serve with crusty bread.
