INGREDIENTS:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 onions, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 8 eggs
- 50 ml milk
- 200 g Perfect Italiano™ Mozzarella
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 500 g potatoes (Desiree), peeled, cooked, and sliced
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced).
- In a large ovenproof frypan, heat half of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and gently stir for about 5 minutes until they turn golden. Add the brown sugar and continue to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the onions are caramelised. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the onions to cool.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and milk together until well combined. Stir in half of the Perfect Italiano™ Mozzarella, the crushed garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Add the cooked and sliced potatoes as well as the cooled caramelised onions. Gently toss all the ingredients to combine.
- Using the same ovenproof frypan (wipe it clean if necessary), heat the remaining olive oil over low heat. Pour the frittata mixture into the pan, ensuring the potato slices are arranged in an even layer. Allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Sprinkle the remaining Perfect Italiano™ Mozzarella over the top of the frittata.
- Transfer the frypan to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until the frittata is set, puffed, and golden.
- Once done, carefully remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve the Potato, Mozzarella, and Caramelised Onion Frittata warm, delighting in each savory and satisfying bite.
