3am frittata
After my Monday night out at Djoon, where I made a fool of myself dancing (dancing to house music is all about ‘jumping around, moving your feet’ rather than ‘shaking your arse’ hip hop style) I felt quite peckish.
I’m somewhere in the photo, I think I’m behind the girl waving her hand in the air, well my friends are.
Unlike London or New York it’s pretty hard to come by any sort of fast food in Paris. (I’m sorry, but no matter how ‘gourmande’ you are, after a night out clubbing there’s only one type of food that hits the spot and it’s not the healthy kind).
So I had to resort to what I had leftover in the fridge. I’m rather ashamed to admit that my fridge was looking pretty sad with the only half decent contents being some eggs (what would I do without them), spinach (I 
Spinach. Eat your heart out, Popeye!), cheese, onion and a lonely looking potato. So hey presto @ 3 in the morning I whipped up this.
Spinach frittata
6 eggs, beaten
½ red onion
1 medium potato, peeled
200g spinach, frozen
2 handfuls of grated cheese
butter
salt
pepper
Non stick pan
Slice the onion and potato thinly. Heat the pan with a knob of butter add the onion and potato. Fry for about 5 minutes, add the frozen spinach. Cover for about 5 minutes, stirring a few times. Season. Add the beaten eggs and grated cheese. Stir until the eggs start setting. Cook for about 5 minutes. Put a plate on top of the pan. Turn the pan upside down and slide the frittata back in the pan. Cook for another 5 minutes. Eat straight away or cold.
