Smoked Salmon and Green Veggie Egg Frittata with Danish Feta

Start your day off the right way with this protein-packed smoked salmon frittata. Made with green veggies and danish feta, it’s hard to say no to this perfect brunch option.

How to make an egg frittata?

An egg frittata originated in Italy and is made from an egg base, very similar to an omelette. And some frittatas can even be baked, similarly to a quiche. Because it’s the perfect base to add any other ingredients to it, a frittata is great for making a perfectly balanced and flavourful brunch.

This egg frittata recipe consists of layers of whisked eggs, ricotta, feta and parmesan. Then comes the veggie goodness – zucchini, broccoli and spinach. And then for an extra pop of flavour, some peppadews are added.

Once the mixture is ready, pour into a baking dish and place the salmon pieces within the mixture. And finally, crumble the delicious Danish feta over the top for the finishing touch.

Chef’s tip

If you’re making this brunch for guests and would like a better presentation, prepare mini frittatas. All you need to do is pour the mixture into smaller, individual bowls before adding the salmon and feta.
