Ingredients

8 total
  • 3 tbsp of olive oil
  • 3 salad onions, bulbs and greens finely chopped
  • 150 g of peas, fresh or frozen (defrosted)
  • 1 handful of of fresh herbs (such as basil, parsley, dill, thyme), roughly chopped
  • 8 eggs
  • 2 tbsp of parmesan, grated (or vegetarian Italian hard cheese if required)
  • 125 g of burrata, sliced as best as you can (don’t worry if it’s messy)
  • 20 g of unsalted butter

Method

4 steps
  1. Step 1

    Preheat the grill to high. Warm 2tbsp of the olive oil and a knob of the butter in a non-stick ovenproof frying pan over a low-medium heat. Add the salad onions and fry until soft and wilted, then add the peas and cook for a few mins more. Add the herbs, stir and remove from the heat.

  2. Step 2

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the parmesan; season. Stir in the pea mix.

  3. Step 3

    Wipe the frying pan with kitchen towel; heat the remaining butter and oil in it. Pour in the egg mix using a spatula to spread it out. Cook on a low heat for 8-10 mins until just set but slightly raw on top.

  4. Step 4

    Top with the sliced burrata and finish under the grill until golden. Leave to cool before transporting if you’re taking it on a picnic.
