Little Frittata Bites

These are lovely little bites to serve during an afternoon with friends.

  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, grated
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tsp. tarragon, chopped
  • 1 tsp. thyme, chopped
  • 1 cup fresh peas
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese, grated
  • pinch of salt
  • pinch of pepper
  • 12 grape tomatoes, halved

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 24 cup, mini muffin tin and set aside.

In a large frying pan, heat the oil over a medium heat and add the onion, cooking until soft (5 minutes), stirring throughout. Stir in the garlic and cook another 1  1/2 minutes. Remove from the heat, adding the thyme, tarragon and peas, then set aside and let cool to room temperature.

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs together with the cheese, cooled pea mixture, salt and pepper until well mixed. Ladle into the prepared muffin, and top with a tomato half, cut side up. Bake for up to 15 minutes until puffed and set. Allow to cool in the pan for a couple of minutes before removing from the pan.

Arrange on a platter and serve warm. Make sure they have napkins.
