Total

1:5 hr

( Serves Size: 2 )
M I
10 Chicken sausages (Heck)
40 g Sundried tomatoes
Handful Fresh basil
1 Red onion (medium)
1 Sweet potato (medium)
40 g Cheddar cheese grated
1 Courgette (zucchini) small
1 tsp Mixed herbs
1/4 tsp Chilli flakes
To taste Salt and pepper
Optional garnish Fresh basil pesto

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lightly grease an ovenproof baking dish with spray oil or olive oil. Peel and dice the sweet potato.

Step 2

Roast the diced sweet potato and chicken sausages (according to packet / brand) in the oven until cooked through and lightly golden. Sweet potatoes take about 40 minutes if the pieces are large. Remove and allow to cool slightly. Slice the chicken sausages.

Step 3

Grate the courgette and squeeze out any excess moisture using a clean tea towel.

Step 4

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the mixed herbs, chilli flakes, salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Add the grated courgette, sliced red onion, roasted sweet potato, sun-dried tomatoes, chopped basil, cooked sliced chicken sausages and grated cheddar directly into the whisked eggs. Stir well until evenly combined.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into the prepared pan or dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Bake in the oven for 25–30 minutes until the frittata is set in the centre and lightly golden on top.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle with pesto if using.
