Here are the ingredients you’ll need for this delicious frittata:
Vegetables and Herbs:

  1. 1/2 cabbage (approximately 600g, finely shredded)
  2. 1 onion (finely chopped)
  3. 2 carrots (grated)
  4. A few sprigs of parsley (finely chopped, for garnish)

Batter:

  1. 4 eggs
  2. 4 tablespoons of flour
  3. 1/4 cup of milk (50 ml)
  4. 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  5. 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  6. 1 teaspoon of salt
  7. 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  8. 1 teaspoon of oregano

Cheese:

  1. 100g of Feta cheese (shredded)

Making It Step by Step

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Start by prepping your vegetables. Finely shred the cabbage using a knife or a food processor. Grate the carrots and finely chop the onion and parsley. Set them aside. This mix of vegetables will add color, crunch, and nutrition to your frittata.

Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables;

  1. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until soft and translucent.
  2. Add the shredded cabbage and grated carrots to the pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage softens and the carrots are tender. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Once cooked, remove the vegetables from the heat and set them aside to cool slightly.

Step 3: Prepare the Egg Batter

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten and slightly frothy. Add the flour, milk, olive oil, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and oregano to the eggs.
  2. Whisk everything together until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. This batter will bind the vegetables together and give the frittata its fluffy texture.

Step 4: Combine the Vegetables and Batter

  1. Once the sautéed vegetables have cooled slightly, gently fold them into the egg batter. Make sure the vegetables are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  2. This will ensure that each bite of the frittata is packed with flavor and texture.

Step 5: Add the Mozzarella Cheese
Fold in the shredded Feta cheese, reserving a little to sprinkle on top of the frittata. The cheese will melt as the frittata cooks, adding a delicious creaminess to the dish.

Step 6: Cook the Frittata

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease an oven-safe skillet or baking dish with olive oil. Pour the vegetable and egg mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.
  2. Place the frittata in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is golden brown. To check if it’s done, insert a toothpick or knife into the center; it should come out clean when the frittata is fully cooked.

Step 7: Garnish and Serve

  1. Once the frittata is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
  2. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor. Serve the frittata warm, either on its own or with a side of salad, bread, or yogurt for a complete meal.
