Key Ingredients

  • 5 large eggs
  • 2 handfuls of fresh spinach (approx. 30g)
  • 30g carrot
  • 1/4 small onion
  • 5 Vienna sausages
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of black pepper

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

First, prepare the vegetables and sausages that will add flavor to your frittata. Finely slice the onion. Cut the carrot into thin strips lengthwise, then into quarters. Slice the Vienna sausages lengthwise into bite-sized pieces.

Step 1

Step 2

Next, prepare the star ingredient: fresh spinach! Wash it thoroughly. You can use the spinach as is, without further chopping.

Step 2

Step 3

In a medium-sized bowl, crack the 5 fresh eggs. Whisk them gently with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are well combined and slightly frothy. This ensures a tender texture.

Step 3

Step 4

Pour the 1/2 cup of milk into the whisked eggs. Gently stir to combine the milk with the eggs, creating a smooth base for your frittata.

Step 4

Step 5

Lightly grease a non-stick frying pan with a little cooking oil and heat over low heat. Add the sliced onion, carrot, and Vienna sausages. Sauté them gently until the onion becomes translucent and the sausages are lightly browned. Season lightly with salt and pepper while cooking.

Step 5

Step 6

Once the onion has softened, add the prepared spinach to the pan. Stir it into the sautéed vegetables and sausages.

Step 6

Step 7

Cook the spinach just until it wilts, which should only take a minute or two. Be careful not to overcook it, as it can become mushy.

Step 7

Step 8

Pour the whisked egg and milk mixture evenly over the sautéed ingredients in the pan. Ensure all the ingredients are well covered by the egg mixture.

Step 8

Step 9

Cover the frying pan with a lid and let it cook over very low heat for about 10 minutes. The key is to cook it gently so the bottom doesn’t burn.

Step 9

Step 10

The definition of ‘low heat’ can vary depending on your stove. Set your burner to the lowest possible flame setting to ensure gentle cooking.

Step 10

Step 11

After 10 minutes, carefully remove the lid. The frittata should be puffed up and set, resembling a fluffy cake. Turn off the heat and let it sit, covered, for another 5 minutes. This allows the center to finish cooking without overcooking the edges.

Step 11

Step 12

After resting, gently tilt the pan and slide the frittata onto a serving plate. Your delicious and nutritious Spinach Frittata is ready to be enjoyed!
