Pumpkin Zucchini and Feta Frittata

Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 500g butternut pumpkin, peeled,
  • deseeded, cut into 1cm cubes
  • 2 green zucchini, coarsely chopped
  • 6 eggs, lightly whisked
  • 125ml (3/4 cup) thickened cream
  • 200g feta, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup finely shredded fresh basil leaves
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • Mixed salad leaves, to serve

Method

  1. Preheat grill on high. Heat the oil in a 25cm-diameter (base measurement) non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the pumpkin and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until golden brown and tender. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until tender.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk the egg and cream together in a medium bowl. Add the feta and basil, and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the pumpkin mixture. Reduce heat to low and cook for 7-8 minutes or until frittata is set around the edge but still runny in the centre. Cook under preheated grill for a further 5 minutes or until golden brown and just set. Remove from grill.
  4. Cut the frittata into wedges and serve immediately with mixed salad leaves, if desired.
