Ingredients

  • 5 eggs
  • ¼ cup milk (65 ml)
  • 3 wedges roasted pumpkin ( 1 cup cubed roasted pumpkin)
  • ½ cup cubes feta cheese ( 100 g)
  • 1 cup Cavolo Nero ( stem removed and shredded)
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 30 g butter ( 2 tbsp)
  • ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius ( 350 Fahrenheit).
  2. Heat up a frying pan on a medium heat, add the butter and allow it to melt.
  3. Add the cavolo nero and peeled and chopped garlic, and stir fry them for 2-3 minutes until the cavolo nero wilts.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat.
  5. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl, pour in the milk, season with salt and pepper and whisk well.
  6. Scatter the cubed roasted pumpkin, cubed feta and cooked cavolo nero over the bottom of a roasting tray or ovensafe dish ( my tray is 27 x 22 x 5 cm or 10.5 x 8.5 x 2 inches).
  7. Pour over the egg mixture, making sure it's one nice even layer.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes or until the eggs are set.

Notes

  • If you have a cast iron, you can make this frittata in one pan only, the frying pan I used to cook the cavolo nero wasn't oven-friendly, so I had to transfer the sauteed cavolo nero into an oven-safe dish.
  • If you make everything in one pan, you can partially cook the eggs for a few minutes before transferring the dish to the oven, but that's optional.
