Ingredients
Base
- 8 large eggs
- 80 ml cream or milk
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 30 g grated cheddar or gruyère (optional)
Vegetables (aim for 300–400 g total)
- 1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced or diced
- 1 red capsicum, diced
- 150 g mushrooms, sliced
- 100 g spinach or rocket, roughly chopped
- ½ red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small broccoli head, cut into small florets
- 50 g sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (or use cherry tomatoes, halved)
For the pan
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Method
Prepare
Preheat the oven to 200°C fan-forced.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and cheese until well combined. Set aside.
Prepare all your vegetables: slice the zucchini, dice the capsicum, slice the mushrooms, chop the spinach, slice the onion, and cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets.
Cook
Heat the olive oil in a 30 cm non-stick oven-safe frying pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add any harder vegetables first (broccoli, carrot, beetroot if using) and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the remaining vegetables (zucchini, capsicum, mushrooms, onion, spinach, tomatoes) and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened slightly and any excess liquid has evaporated. You want them tender but not mushy.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Spread the vegetables evenly across the pan.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables, gently stirring to distribute them. Cook on the stovetop for 2–3 minutes until the edges just begin to set, then stop stirring.
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 15–18 minutes, until the centre is just set with a very slight wobble when you gently shake the pan. The top should be lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 5 minutes before sliding onto a board or serving directly from the pan.
