Today I had this vegetarian carrot and zucchini frittata. A really delicious Italian omelette. You can certainly vary with the vegetables. I can imagine the frittata very well broccoli, corn, peas or even paprika.

ingredients

  • 1 big onion
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 400 g of zucchini
  • 200 g of carrots
  • 2-3 teaspoons dried rosemary or 1 fresh branch
  • 2 cloves of garlic (or 1-2 teaspoons of garlic puree)
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons whipped cream
  • 4 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese (preferably fresh)
  • More Parmesan for sprinkling and perhaps chopped parsley
  • salt and pepper

preparation

  1. Wash carrots and zucchini and cut into small cubes. It is best to use a food processor, it should be very small cubes or rasps (I use the GENIUS QVC, I have no electrical device for such a thing).
  2. Cut the onion into fine cubes or grate.
  3. With fresh rosemary, pluck the needles and chop something.
  4. Now the butter is heated in a pan and sautéed or steamed onions, zucchini, carrots, rosemary and the pressed garlic. About 5-7 minutes.
  5. The oven is preheated to 200 degrees.
  6. In the meantime, you can open the eggs in a bowl, add the cream, salt and pepper. Then whisk along with the Parmesan.
  7. Smooth the vegetables in the pan with a spoon and spread the eggs evenly over them. Then the pan comes into the oven for about 15-20 minutes. (If you do not have a pan suitable for the oven, wrap the pan handle with aluminum foil.)
  8. When the vegetarian frittata is ready, it is toppled on a plate and sprinkled with fresh parmesan and possibly chopped parsley. To taste a little more pepper from the mill.

I had a fresh salad.
