02 - 3/4 cup fresh or frozen peas
03 - 2 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
04 - 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

→ Eggs & Dairy

05 - 8 large eggs
06 - 1/4 cup whole milk or cream

# How To Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F.

03 - Whisk eggs, milk or cream, chives, dill or parsley, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl until fully combined.
04 - Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes, until the edges begin to set but the center remains slightly runny.
05 - Distribute crumbled goat cheese uniformly over the surface.
06 - Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until frittata is puffed and set in the center.
07 - Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Portion and serve warm or at room temperature.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You get to enjoy the fresh snap of spring vegetables and creamy pockets of goat cheese in every bite.
  • This recipe is beautifully simple—no fuss, just honest flavors that brighten up your day.
02 -
  • If you rush the sauté, asparagus can turn stringy and peas stay pale; patience brings out color and texture.
  • The moment you stop cooking on the stovetop and transfer to the oven is crucial—wait just until the edges look firm, not fully set.
03 -
  • Let your frittata cool slightly for clean slices and to prevent cheese from oozing out too soon.
  • Lining your skillet with parchment can help lift the frittata without sticking—especially handy for brunches on the go.
