Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). This will ensure it's hot and ready when your frittata is ready to be baked.
- Peel and thinly slice the potatoes.
- Dice the red capsicum.
- Finely slice the onion.
- Dice the eggplant.
- Mince the garlic cloves.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
