The method

Step by step

1
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).
2
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Whisk thoroughly to ensure a light and fluffy frittata.
3
Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe, non-stick skillet (about 20-25 cm or 8-10 inches) over medium heat.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Ensure your skillet handle is oven-safe or wrap it in foil if not.
4
Add the chopped yellow onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
About 7 min
5
Stir in the spinach and cook until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
About 3 min
Cook’s note: Squeeze out any excess water from the spinach if using frozen.
6
Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the vegetables in the skillet.
About 1 min
7
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables and cheese in the skillet.
About 1 min
8
Cook on the stovetop for 3-5 minutes until the edges of the frittata begin to set.
About 4 min
9
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and set in the center.
About 20 min
Cook’s note: A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
10
Remove the frittata from the oven and sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.
About 1 min
11
Let the frittata rest in the skillet for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
About 5 min
Cook’s note: This helps it set completely and makes for cleaner slices.
