Frittatas are an awesome way to enjoy eggs in a less conventional way, use up leftover veggies, meat cuts, cheese, etc. and reduce the washing up, as everything nicely goes into one pan. Plus, if done properly, they taste *so good* and can be customised to include whatever you like eating. YUM.
Why are eggs good for you?
If you’re not at all keen on eggs, I hear you; but the many benefits of eggs aside from their protein content, include the Vitamins B6, D, E, and K found in them, as well as selenium, a cancer-fighting antioxidant, phosphorus, which aids with healthy bones and teeth, and Zinc, a nutrient that helps your immune system and metabolism function.
What do I need to make a frittata?
The basics you’ll need are some fresh eggs, vegetables of your choice, light seasoning and an oven-safe pan or dish — everything else is up to you. Watch how Sisi Yemmie makes hers for some inspo👇🏾
Is it better eaten hot or cold?
Foodie content creators like Nkechi Ajaeroh suggest you enjoy your frittata hot, but either way works, depending on what you like better. Try both and decide!
How can I preserve leftovers?
Your frittata leftovers can keep well for a few days in the fridge (if there’s constant electricity). To reheat, pop it in the microwave or even better, in an oven, to keep it crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.
When it’s ready, enjoy it alone or with a side of potatoes (boiled or roasted), fries, a sandwich or even a delicious salad.
