Ingredients:

1/4 cup olive oil
60g
1 onion
160g
1 red pepper
80g
2 potatoes
400g
1 eggplant
450g
2 garlic cloves
6g
6 eggs
300g
2 tbsp dried oregano
30g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). This will ensure it's hot and ready when your frittata is ready to be baked.
2. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Peel and thinly slice the potatoes.
- Dice the red capsicum.
- Finely slice the onion.
- Dice the eggplant.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
3. Cook the Vegetables:
- In a large ovenproof skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they become translucent.
- Add the red capsicum and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Add the thinly sliced potatoes and diced eggplant. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Season the Vegetables:
- Add 2 tablespoons of dried oregano to the cooked vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly combined.
5. Prepare the Eggs:
- In a separate bowl, whisk the 6 eggs until they are well beaten.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the vegetable mixture in the skillet. Use a spatula to gently stir and evenly distribute the eggs among the vegetables.
6. Cook the Frittata:
- Cook on the stovetop for about 3-4 minutes, or until the edges start to set. Do not stir.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and golden on top. You can check by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
7. Serve:
- Once done, remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm.

Tips:

- Ensure the vegetables are evenly chopped so they cook uniformly.

- Pre-cook the potatoes until they are just tender; this ensures they will be perfectly cooked in the frittata.

- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent the frittata from sticking and to make it easier to flip.

- Let the frittata sit for a few minutes before slicing, this will help it set and be easier to cut.

- You can add cheese like feta or cheddar for extra flavor.

- Experiment with additional herbs like thyme or rosemary to customize the taste.

This Potato, Capsicum, and Eggplant Frittata is as versatile as it is delicious. Serve it hot or at room temperature, and pair it with a simple green salad for a wholesome meal. Enjoy the flavors of fresh vegetables and eggs coming together in this delightful dish!
