Method
0 of 5 done- Preheat your grill to medium-high. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them lightly until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Stir in the cottage cheese and season with salt and black pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until they are slightly softened and fragrant.
- Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture over the vegetables in the pan. Use a spatula to ensure the mixture is evenly spread. Allow the frittata to cook undisturbed for about 5 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- Transfer the frying pan to the preheated grill. Grill the frittata for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the centre is set.
- Remove the frittata from the grill and let it cool for a minute or two. Slide it onto a plate or cutting board, and slice into wedges to serve.
