Tomato Basil Frittata
After watching an amazing cricket match this morning , made Tomato basil frittata for brunch. India’s inspiring win motivated me to make something different.
Frittata  is an egg-based dish similar to an omelette or quiche and flavored with vegetable and herbs. I have used tomatoes, fresh basil, green onions/ scallions and mozzarella cheese. Mix everything and bake it for 25- 30 mins.
Remove from the oven and use a large spatula to transfer the frittata to a serving platter. Cool about 10 minutes, cut into wedges, and serve.
I have used ceramic bowl to bake as my kids like individual size ones, you can use any baking pan you choose and later cut them in wedges. This recipe is wonderful for summer entertaining.
Note:
A well-seasoned cast-iron skillet works extremely well too.
