Main Ingredients- 100g fresh spinach
- 100g oyster mushrooms
- 1/4 onion
- 3 cherry tomatoes
- 10 sliced olives
- 4 eggs
- 100ml milk
Seasoning and Other Ingredients- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 0.5 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of grated Parmesan cheese
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly washing 100g of fresh spinach and 100g of oyster mushrooms. Separate the spinach leaves and tear the oyster mushrooms into bite-sized pieces. Prepare them for cooking.
Step 2
Finely slice 1/4 onion. Hull and quarter 3 cherry tomatoes. Prepare about 10 sliced olives, halving them if desired.
Step 3
In a bowl, crack 4 eggs. Add 100ml of milk, 0.5 tsp of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Whisk everything together gently with a fork or whisk until well combined to create the egg mixture.
Step 4
Heat 1 Tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion, spinach, and oyster mushrooms. Sprinkle with 0.5 tsp of salt. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened and fragrant.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook slowly until the egg is mostly set but still slightly moist on top. Be careful not to burn the bottom.
Step 6
Once the frittata is about halfway set, arrange the quartered cherry tomatoes and sliced olives over the surface. Sprinkle a pinch of grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top for added flavor.
Step 7
Cover the skillet again and continue to cook on very low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the frittata is fully cooked through and firm. It’s crucial to maintain a low heat to prevent burning the bottom. Check for doneness and serve warm.
