Ingredients

  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 125 grams small cooked prawns remove shells if they have them
  • flaky sea salt
  • whole milk
  • 4 eggs beaten
  • 1 handful fresh dill
  • freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Pour a glug of olive oil into a non-stick frying pan - not your largest one, rather smallish - that can go into the oven.
  • Saute the sliced onions for 8 minutes until soft.
  • Now add the prawns with a good pinch of salt. Stir to coat the prawns in the oil and to mix well with the onion.
  • In a bowl, mix the beaten eggs with a splash of milk and pour over the onion and prawns in the pan. Stir in the dill.
  • Heat the grill while you leave the pan on the hob on a low heat for around 10 minutes. You want the frittata to be mostly set with a bit of liquid left on top.
  • Put the pan under the grill until the top has set and turned golden brown.
  • Remove and turn out onto a plate. Take care not to burn yourself as you turn the pan over. I find it easiest to use a plate that fits into the pan.
  • Add some black pepper. Garnish with some extra dill.
  • Serve with a simple crunchy green salad.
  • You can serve this warm or cold. I often take frittata on picnics.
