Halloumi and green pea frittata

This super easy Halloumi and green pea frittata is ideal for a light lunch or brunch, also as nibbles at picnics and drink parties. I used basil but you can add any fresh herbs you like -  oregano, mint and parsley would work particularly well.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4-5 eggs
  • 100 g halloumi
  • 100 g green peas
  • 1 handful of fresh herb mint, basil, oregano or flat parsley
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Method
 

  1. Dice the halloumi into 1cm cubes. Finely chop the herbs.
  2. Lightly beat the eggs, season with salt and pepper. Add the halloumi and peas. Mix in most of the herbs.
  3. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. When hot, pour in the egg mixture and let it spread out evenly. Put a lid on and cook for about 5 minutes, then turn down the heat and cook until the egg is completely set on the surface. Scatter the remaining herbs on the top.
  4. Let it cool and cut it into wedges or squares.
  5. Serve it with a green salad.
