Ingredients
2 tablespoons Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil
1 onion, finely chopped
75g to 100g Pancetta, diced
115g (4oz) mushrooms, sliced
1 green Pepper, diced
230g (8oz) New Potatoes, cooked and cubed
6 eggs
100g (3oz) cheese, grated - we use Gruyere but mature cheddar is also good
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Parsley to serve (optional)
Sauté pan (able to use on the hob and in the oven)
Method
Serves 4
Preheat the oven to 220℃ / gas mark 7
Heat the Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil in a non stick sauté pan (the pan will need to be used on the hob and in the oven, we like this one from AGA Cookshop) on a medium heat. Sauté the onion, pancetta, mushrooms, pepper and new potatoes, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and sauté until heated through and cooked.
Beat the eggs with the cheese, pour into the pan and stir to combine. Level out the mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes on the hob and then move to the oven for 5-10 minutes or until the egg has set.
Slide out onto a serving dish and cut into wedges, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve.
