Ingredients

  • 100g pasta shapes, (such as penne, macaroni or farfalle)
  • 15g butter
  • 1 bunch spring onions, chopped
  • 100g roasted red peppers, drained from the jar and chopped
  • 6 eggs
  • 4 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp fresh herbs such as thyme, parsley or chives
  • 100g mature cheddar
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 bag salad, to serve

Method

Step 1

Cook the pasta in boiling water for 8-10 minutes, until just tender. Rinse with cold water and drain thoroughly.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a large non-stick frying pan and gently fry the spring onions for 3-4 minutes, then add the pasta and peppers, stirring them through.

Step 3

Preheat the grill. Beat the eggs, milk and herbs together, season, then pour into the frying pan. Sprinkle the cheese over the top. Cook on the hob over a low heat until set, then brown and set the surface under the grill. Cool for a few minutes, then slice into wedges. Serve hot, warm or cold, with salad.

Step 4

Cook's tip: use cooked sliced new potatoes instead of pasta - you'll need about 300g.
