Cauliflower & Leek Frittata with Smoky Tamari Seeds
Method
SMOKY TAMARI SEEDS:
- Preheat the oven to 150C.
- Spread the seeds in a single layer on a large baking tray.
- Place in hot oven and roast for 10mins then shake tray and roast further 10mins.
- Once seeds are golden, remove from the oven and, while they are still warm, add the paprika and drizzle over the tamari.
- Toss to combine then leave to cool on the tray.
- Keep in an airtight container.
FRITTATA:
- Heat a heavy-based, oven-safe frying pan (preferably cast iron) over a low/moderate heat and add the ghee.
- Once melted, add the leek and saute for 2 minutes to soften.
- Add the cauliflower with a pinch of salt and continue to saute, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and beginning to caramelise (around 10 minutes).
- Whisk the eggs and cream in a bowl to combine, season with salt and pepper.
- Turn the heat up high and pour egg mixture over the vegetables, run a spatula around the edge of the pan and move/tilt the pan around so uncooked egg can run underneath, cook for 2-3 mins.
- Scatter the grated cheese over the top then sprinkle with the seeds.
- Put frittata into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20mins until puffy and golden.
- Check it is cooked in the centre with a small knife, if not, cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Serve hot or cold, with relish, green salad and sourdough bread.
