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.

Ingredients

  • 4 cherry tomatoes – washed, sliced in quarters
  • 3 medium button mushrooms – washed, diced finely
  • 1/2 green capsicum – washed, deseeded, diced finely
  • 1/2 medium onion – peeled, rinsed, diced finely
  • 2 tablespoons goat cheese – diced finely
  • 6 eggs – whisked
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 whole sun dried tomatoes – halved

Directions

  1. Preheat fan-forced oven on 180C / 356F.
  2. Prepare vegetables and cheese.
  3. In a large bowl whisk the eggs to combine for 30 seconds.
  4. Add to bowl vegetables and cheese mix well.
  5. Oil a 20cm / 8in round oven proof dish.
  6. Add frittata mixture to dish and bake in oven for approximately 35 – 40 minutes or until firm.
