Frittata Primavera

I just created this frittata this morning for our brunch. I opened the fridge and thought with what can I come up with and this is the result. :) The end result was delicious and I thought I'll share this creation with you guys. If fresh herbs are not available use a pinch of dried herbs instead. Also, if you would like to make this dish as a vegetarian meal just omit the ham and salami. So, this is basically what you will need...

• 5 eggs, beaten
• 1 red pepper, finely diced
• 1 courgette (zucchine), finely diced
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 2 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
• 4 mint leaves, finely chopped
• Fresh chives, finely chopped
• 50g Ham, chopped
• 50g German salami (or any other salami), chopped
• Pinch ground cumin
• Pinch cayenne pepper
• Ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 tbsp grated hard cheese (Parmigiano, Grana or Kefalotiri)
• Olive oil

Method

1. Heat the olive oil and add all the ingredients apart from the eggs and cheese.
2. Cover and cook until pepper and courgette are soft. Make sure you keep mixing frequently.
3. When veg is soft, distribute the mixture in the pan evenly.
4. Beat the eggs in a bowl and add the cheese and more black pepper. Mix well.
5. Add the egg mixture to the pan.
6. Lower the heat and cook covered until eggs set.
7. Serve with buttered wholemeal bread.

Enjoy!!!
