Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced
2 leeks, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
¼ cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
8 eggs whisked with ½ cup trim milk
100g smoked salmon slices
1 tablespoon baby capers
pickled red onions, sliced, to garnish (optional)
4 cups mixed salad leaves, to serve
2 tablespoons vinaigrette 4 slices wholegrain or
seeded sourdough bread and a little reduced-fat spread, to serve

Instructions

1 Preheat oven to 180°C. In a medium cast-iron or ovenproof frying pan, heat oil over medium. Cook fennel and leeks, stirring, for 5-7 minutes, or until softened. Add dill, chives and half of the parsley.

2 Season whisked eggs and milk well with black pepper, to taste. Add to leek mixture and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until frittata is beginning to set around the edges. Transfer to oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until golden and just set.

3 To serve, top frittata with salmon and scatter with capers, remaining parsley and pickled onion, if using.

4 Slice and divide among plates with dressed salad leaves and bread.
