Tomato and Basil Frittata image

I first saw this on the Two Fat Ladies cooking show. I don't know if this is exactly how they made it, but this is our version.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup thinly sliced onion
1 teaspoon olive oil, for sauteing
1 medium tomatoes, diced
salt and pepper
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (1 tsp dried)
4 tablespoons parmesan cheese
4 eggs
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • In a small nonstick skillet (I use 8-inch), over medium heat, sauté the onions until translucent.
  • Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes.
  • Add basil and cook 2 more minutes.
  • Place in a bowl and let cool slightly.
  • Clean out the pan and spray with nonstick spray.
  • Beat the eggs the water and 3 tablespoons Parmesan until a little foamy and pour into the nonstick skillet.
  • Pour the veggie mixture into the eggs and mix it up a bit.
  • Cook over low heat, without stirring, about 10-15 minutes until the eggs are set- it will still be a bit runny on top.
  • While eggs are cooking, heat up your broiler and after eggs have set, sprinkle remaining Parmesan over the top and broil until bubbly and lightly brown.
  • Great for weekend brunch!
  • This serves 2 hungry folk or 4 not so hungry folk.
