Over the period of years, I started loving spinach that we get here and it has become one of frequently used vegetable in my kitchen. I made a really spicy frittata with gram masala, chili powder, and pepper. This dish is also very filling.
What you need:
Chopped Frozen, thawed Spinach: 4oz (½ cup)
Chopped button mushroom : ½cup
Chopped onion : 1
Green chilies (Serrano pepper) : 1
Eggs : 4 no (3 egg whites and 1 full egg)
Cumin : ⅛ tsp
Gram masala : ¼ tsp
Chili powder : ¼ teaspoon (mine is hotter variety)
Pepper powder : ½ tsp
Olive oil : 2 tablespoons
Salt : ¼ teaspoon or to taste
How I made:
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onions and fry for 3 minutes or until onions become soft and change color. Then add mushrooms, green chilies and spinach and cook for another 5 minutes. Add cumin, chili, pepper, salt and gram masala powder and stir for another 2 minutes.
In another medium bowl beat 3 egg whites and 1 full egg. Pour the egg mixture into the vegetables. Reduce the flame, cover and cook for another 5to 7 minutes or until the egg are firm.
Enjoy Spinach-mushroom- onion frittata hot and warm.
Preparation time: 15-17 minutes
Yield : 3 serving
Verdict : Good
Will you make it again: Frequently.
