Goats cheese and beetroot frittata

So easy to make and very tasty. Scrub and thickly slice raw potatoes (don't peel them unless you really want to). Parboil until just softening.

While that is happening, slice several onions, a clove or two of garlic and prep any veg. Broccoli is good, bell peppers, courgette, squash, green beans, peas, asparagus - you choose. (Top tip - Choose two or three veg, not absolutely everything. And really wet stuff like tomatoes aren't the best for this dish). If you like them, chop olives and sundried tomatoes too. Fry your ingredients gently in a a wide, oven-proof dish until onions are softening.

Check, drain and add the potatoes. I often add spinach at this point too. Continue to fry at a medium heat until the onions are a little caramelised and the potatoes getting brown. Season to taste.

Slice beetroot and goats cheese into discs. Beat together eggs (maybe 4 or 6), season and pour over the mixture. Place discs of beetroot and then cheese on the top.

Finish under a medium grill until the egg is set and the top is browning.

You can riff on this basic recipe - for meat eaters, chicken, anchovies, chorizo or bacon is a good addition, or you can leave out the cheese for a more vege version. Throw in some chillies for spice, or simplify it by using only potatoes and onions. I don't have an alternative for the eggs tho, so vegans may know, or will have to swerve this one.

This is also good cold as a picnic or buffet dish.

Enjoy!
