Instructions

  1. Heat an oven-proof, non-stick frypan to medium-high heat. Add oil, cook bacon and onion until onion is soft.

  3. Reduce heat to low and cook for about 10 minutes until the eggs are starting to set.
  4. Scatter tomatoes, basil and parmesan over the top of the eggs.
  5. Use a spatula to loosen the edges of the frittata from the side of the frypan.
  6. Heat the grill to high heat; place the pan under the grill to brown the top of the frittata.
  7. To serve, place a plate over the frypan and invert frittata onto plate.
  8. Cut into wedges and serve with a green salad.
