Frittata Pizza

Frittata - somewhere between an omelette and a crustless quiche, firm based and eminently suitable for loading up with all manner of goodies!

Time to get creative ...

Begin with cracking half a dozen eggs into a mixing bowl and whisking gently just to break up the yolks without making a batter.

In a heavy based pan, pour out the mixture over some softened butter.

Lift the cooking egg mixture from the base and gently re-fold, ensuring that the gaps are re-filled with uncooked egg mixture. Do this gently without too much heat.

Once the egg mixture is cooked through, season with a little salt, pepper, herbs and so on and gently cook the base for a few minutes. Take care not to let it burn.

Place the pan onto a heavy board and start to load up with goodies!

Peppers, salami, pepperoni, ham, whatever floats your boat ...

Layer some mozzarella over and place it under the grill to warm through and melt the cheese.

Slice up, as per pizza, pick up, eat ... enjoy!
