Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a 10-inch oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add 1/2 chopped yellow onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 cup chopped Warrigal greens and 1/2 cup diced bush tomatoes to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes until greens wilt and tomatoes soften.
  3. Step 3: In a bowl, whisk 6 large eggs with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper until combined. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet.
  4. Step 4: Sprinkle 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese over the top. Cook on the stovetop for 2 minutes until edges start to set.
  5. Step 5: Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until the frittata is puffed and fully set. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

How do I store leftover Bush Tomato and Warrigal Greens Frittata?

Can I substitute ingredients in Bush Tomato and Warrigal Greens Frittata?

How do I scale Bush Tomato and Warrigal Greens Frittata for a different number of people?

The recipe is written for 4 servings. Multiply each ingredient by (your serving target / 4). Cook time stays roughly the same up to 2x; for 3-4x batches, switch from a skillet to a sheet pan or stockpot so the food isn't crowded — overcrowding steams instead of browns.
