… another all time winner for me would be frittata – everyone loves it and it is just as tasty served cold as it is hot.

Frittata

Serves 4

4 large eggs

400g cooked new potatoes, cubed

1 medium onion, finely chopped or 4 spring onions finely chopped

glug of rapeseed oil (2 tbsp)

black pepper

2 handfuls of grated mature cheddar cheese (50g approx)

1-2 tbsp flat leaf parsley, finely chopped

I use my trusted large frying pan for this task – the one I'm always droning on about - suitable to use in the oven as well as on the hob. I make this point because if you use this recipe then you'll be placing the frying pan under the grill – if you use an ordinary frying pan you may damage the handle, not to mention safety issues!

To begin, turn on your grill but before doing so check that the frying pan will slide easily into the space leaving at least two inches gap between the pan and the grill itself otherwise you'll burn the top and the middle won't be cooked.

Sauté the onion in a little rapeseed oil until softened. Add the cooked cubed potatoes. Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl, add two large handfuls of cheese and black pepper.

Add the egg and cheese mixture to the onions and potatoes and cook on a medium heat on the hob for 2/3 minutes. Then place the pan under the grill and allow to cook for 2/3 minutes. REMOVE THE PAN USING OVEN GLOVES. Using a fish slice gently flatten down the frittata so that you break the top – you'll find that the egg mixture is still not quite cooked. Place the pan back under the grill for another2/3 minutes or until it is golden brown.

You have unlimited options to add to your frittata – you could begin with sautéing 200g diced chorizo which, as we know gives the declicious spicy oil. Then add the onions and potatoes as above.

To serve slide your cooked frittata onto a wooden board. Frittata looks impressive and inviting served hot and whole – you could if you prefer use a small circular cutter and cut individual portions – hot or cold. Sprinkle with the parsley either way!

It's the perfect addition to a sharing plate!

Then there's the pizza option ...
