A frittata is the most forgiving egg dish: everything goes into one pan on the stove, then finishes in the oven. Whisking cottage cheese into the eggs makes it fluffy and tender. Sun-dried tomatoes bring a sweet, concentrated tang and feta brings salt.

Ingredients

For 4 wedges.

Eggs

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup liquid egg whites
  • 1 cup 2% cottage cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Filling

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 oz feta, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 375°F. Whisk the eggs, whites, cottage cheese and pepper together.

  2. Cook the onion in the oil in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. Add the spinach and sun-dried tomatoes and stir until the spinach wilts.

  3. Pour in the eggs, scatter the feta and cook 2 minutes without stirring until the edges set.

  4. Bake 10 to 12 minutes until just set in the centre (160°F). Rest 2 minutes, scatter with basil and cut into wedges.

Tips

  • Blend the cottage cheese with the eggs for a smooth custard, or whisk it in for little creamy pockets.
  • Take it out when the centre barely jiggles; it sets as it rests.
