This rocket and fontina frittata is a sophisticated yet simple vegetarian dish that makes the most of fresh, seasonal ingredients. The peppery notes of the baby rocket provide a sharp contrast to the rich, buttery melt of the Italian Fontina cheese. By infusing the olive oil with a hint of garlic before cooking, the base of the omelette gains a subtle depth of flavour that ties the whole dish together beautifully.
Ideal for a quick midweek supper or a relaxed weekend brunch, this protein-rich meal is incredibly versatile. It can be served hot from the pan or at room temperature, making it a reliable choice for pack-up lunches or picnics. For a complete meal, pair a golden slice with a crisp green salad and some crusty sourdough bread.

Ingredients for Rocket and Fontina Frittata
1 garlic clove, halved
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
140g baby rocket (7 cups packed)
6 large eggs
1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoons black pepper
110g Fontina, rind discarded and cheese cut into 1/2-inch cubes
How to make Rocket and Fontina Frittata
Preheat grill.
Cook garlic in oil in a 10-inch well-seasoned cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 2 minutes. Discard garlic and add rocket, then cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
Whisk together eggs, salt, and pepper until combined, then pour over rocket in skillet and cook, undisturbed, over moderate heat until almost set, 5 to 6 minutes. Sprinkle cheese evenly on top and grill 4 to 5 inches from heat until eggs are just set and cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
