Notes

Tip
You can use your own favourite combination of vegetables in this recipe or even used leftover vegetables from a recent meal.
Tip
It is best to squeeze out the moisture from the potatoes or it will make your frittata too moist.
Tip
If your frittata isn't cooked after the cook cycle you can leave it on the warm cycle for an extra 10 minutes to allow it to set.
Tip
I like to roast extra vegetables at dinner so I can use them the next day for this Roast vegetable frittata.
