Perfect for a light lunch or in a sandwich, this frittata is tasty, healthy and very easy to make!
Potato and broccoli frittata is a delicious comfort food, made with ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. It is highly nutritious, packed with vitamins and minerals, and absolutely satisfying.
A frittata is thicker than an omelette and is cooked in two parts: first on a hob to lightly brown the bottom, and then in the oven to to cook the top.
It is perfect for dinner with a side salad, and delicious the next day in a sandwich. It can be served warm or at room temperature, also making it ideal for picnics, lunch-boxes and lunch on the go!
I have suggested using Parmesan or Pecorino Toscano, but you could use any similar cheeses, even mixing them for extra flavour. Just remember to adjust your seasoning according to the saltiness of the cheese.
