Looks really good to me. Great colours. I love the way frittata keeps so well and can be eaten over the next few days.

I've got one more frittata idea to make - tomorrow I hope. Lots of green herbs...

Changed my mind. We're making one based on the ingredients in a pretty popular NOLA sandwich.

Kuku Sabzi - which is a type of Persian frittata. Basically you put in as many green herbs as your frittata will take and sometimes rose petals and walnuts. Its also traditionally served with barberries which is perhaps unusual for a cooked egg dish. Well - I didn't have any barberries but I did use dill, parsley, rocket, spinach, chives, rose petals and walnuts plus salt. I was a bit sceptical about the rose-petals having any effect - but the result has a lovely wonderfully perfumed taste.

I don't have the rose petals but I do have the barberries because one of my cookbooks features a lot of Persian dishes which often have loads of fresh herbs and barberries in them!
Looks wonderful. Ironically is the walnuts in not that keen on. Never really liked the taste of them ! Odd I know because I love pretty much all nuts (ok , not pecans or macademia nuts ) and seeds .

The "Simple" cookbook has currants soaked in a little lemon juice as a substitute for barberries.

Vegan spiced frittata. I was making some saag aloo and thought it would make a nice frittata, especially when I make egg-free frittata with gram flour. So this ended up as a cross between a mini vegan frittata, a vegetable pakora and saag aloo. It was lovely.

Pics to follow...

I'd try it mg, but maybe too much green for me? Love walnuts too.
