Weekend Frittata

Serves 6
Breakfast or brunch has never been better than with this unique twist to the average omelet.

2 tbsp oil
375g Vegetable Mix
700g Potato chopped flat, and microwaved or par boiled
1-2 ham steaks, diced
6 eggs – I used 4
1 tbsp prepared mustard
1 1/2 cups milk or lite cream
1 cup grated cheese (use tasty, camembert or Parmesan)

Method

1. Heat the oil in a deep, oven-proof frying pan, preferably one that is 26cm wide. Add the

Vegetable Mix and toss quickly to just brown. Set aside.
2. Add the Potatos and cook over a high heat to begin to brown. This may be best done in two

batches. Scatter over the vegetables and diced ham.

3. Beat together the eggs, mustard, milk or lite cream and grated cheese. Pour over the

potato mixture and cook over the direct heat for 2 minutes.

4. Transfer to a 180oC oven for 45-50 minutes or until the frittata is golden on top and the

filling is firm to the touch.

5. Serve the frittata with your favourite relish or chutney.

I wonder what it says about you if you fancy-schmancy silly dog wins a battle of the wills over you?  Louie has been protesting his Tux biscuits for a while now gradually taking longer and longer to eat them, culminating in a total biscuit strike 

The Big Sleepover

The Big Sleepover

Ethan and Freya had their first ever sleepover at our house on Friday night, we didn’t have any expectations as neither of them had ever had a friend over for the night before and Freya had never slept anywhere other than her own bed.  But they were such good kids.  They dragged out bedtime a little, but we expected that.  There were no midnight wake-ups or homesickness, they were, however, up at 6am!!!! and on the trampoline by 6.30 – our poor neighbours!

Freya is such a rad kid we love having her over!
