Red Pepper and Pancetta Frittata

Whip up an easy weeknight frittata with budget-friendly peppers, canned baby potatoes, eggs and pancetta

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

If using fresh potatoes cook these first in a pan of boiling salted water until tender. Fry the pancetta in an ovenproof non-stick frying pan over a medium heat for 3-5 mins until the fat has rendered and the meat is starting to crisp.

Step 2

Stir in the onion and reduce the heat to medium-low. Fry for 6-8 mins until the onion begins to soften.

Step 3

Add the peppers and cooked/tinned potatoes and cook for 5-6 mins until the potatoes take on a little colour - season with pepper

Step 4

Heat the grill to high, then pour in the egg and two-thirds of the cheddar, and cook until the egg is about half-set, around 5 mins (it will puff up a little at the edges).

Step 5

Scatter over the remaining cheddar and grill for around 5 mins until the egg is completely cooked. Remove from the oven carefully using oven gloves as the handle will be very hot. Serve with salad, if you like.
