  • Method

  • 1
    Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until tender. Cool and cut into 5mmthick slices.
  • 2
    Heat the oil in the frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onions and bacon, fry until both are cooked.
  • 3
    Add the potatoes with the torn spinach leaves. Cook, stirring, until the spinach is just beginning to wilt.
  • 4
    Beat the eggs, add three quarters of the cheese, the herbs and plenty of seasoning. Pour over the ingredients in the pan easing the eggs evenly through the mixture.
  • 5
    Cook over a low heat for 4-5 minutes until the side edges are set - a spatula can be slid under the edge to check.
  • 6
    Remove from the heat and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top. Place under a pre-heated grill and cook until the top is pale golden brown.
  • 7
    Leave to rest in the pan for 2-3 minutes. Using a spatula, ease around the edge then by shaking the pan gently slide the frittata on to a hot serving plate, keeping the grilled side uppermost.
