Goats Cheese Caramelised Onion Frittata With A Lemony Green Salad Recipes

GOAT'S CHEESE & CARAMELISED ONION FRITTATA WITH A LEMONY GREEN SALAD

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Put the oil and onions in a medium-to-large ovenproof non-stick frying pan and sweat on a low-medium heat with the lid on for about 10 mins, or until they begin to soften and brown a little at the edges. Reduce heat to low, add the honey, stir well, then leave to bubble for 1 min or so. Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a bowl and beat with a fork, then add some black pepper.
• Pour the eggs into the pan and cook for 5-6 mins until almost set. Break the goat's cheese into large chunks and dot over the top. Place the frittata under the hot grill for 3 mins, then shake to check that the egg is set firm and the cheese is soft and bubbling. Pop it back under the grill for 1 min or so more if needed.
• Mix the salad leaves and beetroot in a large bowl. Dress with the lemon juice and toss. Cut the frittata into quarters - cool then chill half for Frittata and salad (see 'goes well with'). Serve the rest warm with the salad on the side.

GOAT CHEESE, PROSCIUTTO AND CARAMELIZED ONION FRITTATA

Steps:

• For the Onions:
• Remove the shoot and base of the onions. Peel off the onion skin and cut the onions from pole to pole.
• Cut the onion into 1/4-inch slices. Add the olive oil to a large saute pan over medium heat, then add the onions and season with the salt.
• Cook until the onions begin to wilt, about 30 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to prevent sticking. Reduce the heat to low and continue to stir every few minutes as the onions reduce in size.
• If necessary, deglaze the pan with balsamic vinegar or water.
• Continue cooking until the onions are dark brown. Turn off the heat and scrape up any bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Allow the onions to cool.
• For the Frittata:
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, add the eggs, milk, and salt and mix to combine.
• Remove the paper from the prosciutto and stack the slices. Chop the prosciutto into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add the butter to an oven-safe 10-inch pan over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, add the olive oil and reduce the heat to medium-low.
• Pour the egg mixture into the pan. When the eggs start to set, about 10 minutes, add the Parmesan and prosciutto. Stir gently and dot the top with the goat cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the frittata is set and the goat cheese is melted, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the sides of the pan. Slide it onto a cutting board and cut into wedges. Arrange the wedges on a serving platter and top with caramelized onions and thyme leaves before serving.

CARAMELIZED ONION, PANCETTA AND GOAT CHEESE FRITTATA

Steps:

• In 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat 1 teaspoon butter and the oil over medium heat until butter is melted. Cook onions in butter mixture 20 minutes, stirring frequently, until soft. Add pancetta; cook until crisp. Drain all but 1 tablespoon drippings from skillet; add 2 tablespoons butter to skillet.
• In medium bowl, beat eggs, milk, salt and pepper with fork or wire whisk until well mixed; pour over pancetta mixture in hot skillet. Sprinkle 1/2 cup goat cheese over egg mixture. As mixture begins to set at bottom and side, gently lift cooked portions with spatula so that thin, uncooked portion can flow to bottom. Avoid constant stirring. Cook 3 minutes or until eggs are thickened but still moist; remove from heat. Sprinkle remaining goat cheese and the Parmesan cheese over top of egg mixture.
• Set oven control to broil. Broil with top of skillet 6 inches from heat 1 to 2 minutes or until eggs are set and top is just beginning to brown. To serve, cut into 8 wedges.
