Pepper And Chorizo Sausage Frittata

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 4 medium bell peppers, e.g. mix of red, yellow and orange
• 7 ounces whole chorizo sausage
• 1 large spanish onion, sliced into thin wedges
• 2 large garlic cloves, thinly
• 1 bunch fresh basil or 1 bunch flat leaf parsley or 1 small coriander, roughly chopped
• 6 eggs, beaten
• salt & freshly ground black pepper

Recipe

• 1 halve, de-seed and roughly chop the peppers. remove the outer skin from the chorizo and chop it into small bite-sized pieces.
• 2 put the chorizo in a large, non-stick frying pan and stir over a medium heat until the oil starts to run from the sausage.
• 3 add the peppers, onion and garlic to the pan and stir fry over a brisk heat for a good 10-15 minutes until the peppers and onion are tender, deep golden brown and a bit sticky (it will look as though there is too much mixture at first but the vegetables do cook down).
• 4 stir the chopped herbs into the beaten egg with plenty of salt and pepper then pour over the pepper mixture. tilt the pan a little to make sure the egg goes all over the pan.
• 5 leave the pan over a moderate heat for 3-4 minutes until the egg is lightly set. if there is still a little runny egg in the centre of the pan, pop it under a hot broiler for 1-2min.
• 6 serve in thick wedges with garlic bread.
