Steps to make Ham, Shallot & Mushroom Frittata:

  4. Bring the butter to a medium-high heat in a frying pan and cook the shallots for 2 minutes, stirring only to avoid sticking. Then add the garlic, chili and peppers and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 3 minutes or until the shallots are cooked but not burnt, gently stirring occasionally.
  5. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk, then season and add the contents of the frying pan and mix together. Add the ham and cheese and gently but thoroughly mix it all.
  6. Lay the potato slices evenly to cover the base of the baking dish and pour over the egg mix all over, ensuring an even spread.
  7. Cook in the pre-heated oven for 40-45 minutes and serve piping hot onto warmed plates. A small side salad is a pleasant bonus.
