Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup crème fraîche plus extra for garnish
  • 1/2 cup smoked trout flaked
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Onion: Heat the olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Whisk the Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, crème fraîche, dill, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Add the Smoked Trout: Stir the flaked smoked trout into the egg mixture, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Cook the Frittata: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet with the onions and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly.
  5. Finish in the Oven: Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven (350°F) and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the frittata is fully set and lightly golden on top.
  6. Serve and Garnish: Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing. Serve with a dollop of crème fraîche and a sprinkle of fresh dill on each slice.
