Ingredients:

6 eggs
300g
1/2 cup light sour cream
120g
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
27g
2 garlic cloves
6g

Instructions:

1. Prep Work:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Mince the garlic cloves finely and set aside.
2. Mix the Eggs:
- Crack all six eggs into a large mixing bowl.
- Beat the eggs until well combined, ensuring the yolks and whites are fully mixed.
3. Add the Sour Cream:
- Add the 1/2 cup of light sour cream to the egg mixture.
- Whisk again until the sour cream is fully incorporated into the eggs. The mixture should appear smooth and slightly frothy.
4. Incorporate the Cheese:
- Stir in the 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese into the egg and sour cream mixture.
- Mix well to evenly distribute the cheese throughout the mixture.
5. Add Garlic:
- Add the minced garlic to the mixture.
- Stir thoroughly to ensure the garlic is well mixed with the other ingredients.
6. Season and Adjust:
- You can add salt, pepper, and any other seasonings or herbs as desired. Whisk to combine these into the mixture.
7. Cook the Frittata:
- Lightly grease an oven-safe skillet or baking dish.
- Pour the frittata mixture into the prepared pan.
- Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and golden brown on top.
8. Serve:
- Allow the frittata to cool slightly before slicing.
- Serve warm, and enjoy!

Tips:

- Ensure your vegetables or meats are pre-cooked before adding them to the frittata mix to avoid excess moisture.

- Use a non-stick oven-safe skillet for easy transfer from stovetop to oven if you prefer to finish cooking the frittata in the oven.

- Let the frittata rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow it to set and make it easier to slice.

- Experiment with different cheeses and herbs to suit your taste preferences.

Whether you're a seasoned chef or a beginner in the kitchen, this basic frittata mix is a fantastic recipe to have in your repertoire. It's easy to make and endlessly customizable to suit your tastes. Serve it hot or at room temperature, and enjoy the rich, creamy texture and savory flavors.
