Steps:
- Place butter and oil in a 23 cm (9 inch) non stick frypan over low heat and cook until butter has melted; add onions to pan.
- Cook onions, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 minutes or until onions are golden brown, soft and caramelized.
- Place eggs, cream and pepper in a bowl and whisk to combine; pour egg mixture over onions in frypan and sprinkle with cheese and thyme and cook frittata for 5-6 minutes or until it is almost set.
- To finish cooking, place frittata under a preheated hot grill for 1 minute; cut into wedges and serve with hot buttered toast or with a spicy chutney.
- Pumpkin Frittata - Add 1/2 cup mashed pumpkin or sweet potato when whisking eggs.

Tips:
- Use a good quality ham. The flavor of the ham will shine through in the frittata, so it's important to use a ham that you enjoy the taste of.
- Don't overcook the onions. Caramelized onions should be soft and sweet, but not mushy. Cook them over low heat until they reach the desired color and sweetness.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. A cast iron skillet will help to evenly cook the frittata and give it a nice crust.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the frittata will not cook evenly. Make sure there is enough space between the pieces of ham and onion so that they can cook properly.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat. Medium heat will help to prevent the frittata from burning and ensure that it cooks evenly throughout.
- Let the frittata cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent the frittata from falling apart when you cut it.
