Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion
- 6 sausages good quality, cooked and sliced
- 250 grams frozen peas
- 7-8 eggs
- 50 grams cheddar cheese grated
- 50 grams mozzarella grated
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to high.
- Peel and finely chop the onion. Add the oil to a non stick frying pan and put on a medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes until starting to soften.
- Add half of the sliced cooked sausages and the frozen peas. Cook, stirring frequently, until the peas have defrosted (approximately 3-4 minutes).
- Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a large bowl and add the cheddar cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
- Pour the eggs evenly into the frying pan. Make sure all of the sausage and peas are covered by the egg. Move it around gently with your wooden spoon if you need to. Turn the heat down to low.
- Arrange the remaining sliced sausage in a circular pattern on top of the egg. Scatter the grated mozzarella evenly over the top.
- Transfer the frying pan to the grill and cook for another 10-15 minutes, until the egg has set and the mozzarella is melted and golden.
- Serve hot or cold with a side salad.

Notes
Variations
- Add vegetables: Sliced peppers, spinach, mushrooms or courgettes all work brilliantly.
- Swap the meat: Use cooked bacon, ham or even leftover roast chicken.
- Make it vegetarian: Skip the sausage and add extra veggies or cooked potatoes.
- Change the cheese: Try feta, gouda or a mix of cheddar and parmesan.
- Add herbs: Chopped chives or parsley make it extra fresh.
Storage & Reheating
- Fridge: Keeps well for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
- Freezer: Frittata freezes surprisingly well. Slice it, wrap individually and freeze for up to 2 months.
- Reheat: Warm in the oven or microwave until piping hot, or enjoy cold straight from the fridge.
