Frittata with goat cheese adds a tang that makes it more flavoursome and definitely more interesting. Depending on the type of goat’s cheese you use the taste will vary. We have used goat cheese that has been marinated in extra virgin olive oil, garlic and thyme. This marinated combination produces a milder taste to the cheese. Serve one slice as a starter or two as a main with a salad.
