Tuna Frittata
- Ready In:

- Ingredients:

- Serves:
-
4
ingredients
- 2 (195 g) cans tuna in vegetable oil, drained, flaked
- 400 g cannellini beans, rinsed, well-drained
- 1 cup pecorino cheese, grated
- baby spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 8 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 1⁄2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt, to taste
- fresh ground pepper, to taste
directions
- Combine tuna, beans, pecorino, baby spinach leaves and oregano in a large bowl, add the eggs, season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper, and mix well, using a fork.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based, non-stick pan over a medium-high heat; add the egg mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes until it is setting around the edges. Using a spatula or egg slide, slightly lift around the edges to allow some of the uncooked mixture to run under the sides. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until it is set around the edges but still soft in the middle.
- Invert the frittata onto a plate, and slide back into the pan for another 3 minutes or until almost cooked in the middle. Remove from the heat and allow the frittata to stand for 5 minutes in the pan.
- Serve with warm crispy rolls and salad greens.

Super easy and quick supper that's great on days that are too-busy-to-make-supper. I cut the recipe in half but used the whole cup of cheese and skipped the beans. Instead of the cheese mentioned I used gouda cheese which was good in this, but I think next time I'll add a bit of garlic and use a lot of pepper to kick it up a notch. Thanks for sharing!

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
