Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180 degree C (160 degree C for fan-forced).
- Lightly grease an 8 cup non-stick muffin tray (or 8 of the cups on a 12 cup tray).
- Combine all ingredients, except feta, in a large bowl and mix well.
- Be careful with the salt as both the parmesan and feta can be salty enough, personally I leave it out.
- Divide the mixture among the 8 muffin cups.
- Top each with some crumbled feta.
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until just set in the centre.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
CAULIFLOWER AND TOMATO FRITTATA WITH FETA
Cauliflower, tomatoes and feta are always a good combination. This being a winter frittata, I used canned tomatoes for the sauce, but in summer the same dish can be made with fresh tomatoes. Make sure to cook the sauce down until it is quite pasty. If it is too watery it will dilute the eggs and the texture of the frittata will be a bit watery. Even better, make the tomato sauce a day ahead and keep uncovered in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat in a heavy 10-inch skillet, preferably nonstick. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until it begins to smell fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes with liquid, sugar, salt and basil sprig or thyme. Simmer over medium heat, stirring often, until tomatoes have cooked down to a fragrant, dry sauce, about 20 minutes. Remove basil sprig. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- While sauce is simmering, steam cauliflower 5 to 8 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Add to tomato sauce and break up into small pieces with the back of your spoon. If possible, refrigerate uncovered overnight or for a few hours.
- Beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in salt (about 1/2 teaspoon), pepper, tomato sauce with cauliflower, feta, optional olives and herbs.
- Clean and dry skillet and return to heat. Heat remaining olive oil over medium-high heat in the skillet. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl pan to distribute eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up edges of frittata with the spatula in your other hand, to let eggs run underneath during first few minutes of cooking.
- Once a few layers of egg have set, turn heat down to very low, cover (use a pizza pan if you don't have a lid that will fit your skillet), and cook 10 to 15 minutes, shaking pan gently every once in a while and lifting up the frittata and tilting the pan to let egg run underneath. Frittata should be just about set, except for the top.
- Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Uncover pan and place under broiler, not too closeto heat, for 1 to 3 minutes, watching very carefully to make sure top doesn't burn (at most, it should brown in spots and puff under the broiler). Remove from heat, shake pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking and allow it to cool for at least 5 minutes and for up to 15. Loosen edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from pan onto a large round platter. Cut into wedges or into smaller bite-size diamonds. Serve hot, warm, at room temperature, or cold.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler. Whisk eggs and cream in large bowl to blend. Stir in feta cheese, tomatoes, onions, basil, salt, and pepper. Melt butter in large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add egg mixture; do not stir. Cook until eggs start to firm and sides and bottom begin to brown, lifting sides occasionally to let uncooked egg run underneath, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with olives and Parmesan cheese. Transfer skillet to broiler and cook until eggs start to puff and brown, about 2 minutes. Using flexible spatula, loosen edges and bottom of frittata. Slide out onto plate. Slice frittata into wedges. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Choose flavorful ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes and creamy feta cheese. Opt for high-quality olive oil and flavorful herbs like basil or oregano.
- Semi-dry your tomatoes properly: This step concentrates their flavor and prevents them from releasing too much moisture into the frittata. To semi-dry tomatoes, cut them in half and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 200°F (93°C) for 2-3 hours, or until the tomatoes are slightly shriveled and darkened.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When pouring the egg mixture into the pan, make sure it is evenly distributed and not too thick. Otherwise, the frittata will not cook evenly.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat: This will help it cook evenly without burning. Be patient and resist the temptation to turn the heat up.
- Flip the frittata carefully: Once the bottom of the frittata is golden brown and set, carefully flip it using a large spatula. Be careful not to break the frittata.
- Bake until cooked through: The frittata is done when the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before serving: This will make it easier to slice and serve. You can also enjoy the frittata warm or at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Semi-dried tomato and feta frittatas are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can create a perfect frittata that is sure to impress your friends and family.
