When I was buying whitebait a few weeks ago a woman waiting next to me gave me this recipe. I tried it and have to say this simple idea is brilliant.
Ingredients
2 | Eggs, whites only, beaten until stiff |
100 g | Whitebait (Main) |
1 to taste | Salt and pepper |
2 Tbsp | Butter, or oil |
1 Tbsp | Chives, chopped |
Directions
- Fold the whitebait into the beaten egg white and season with salt and pepper.
- Melt the butter in a 22cm pan. Once the butter starts to foam, pour in the mix.
- Reduce the heat to medium, and cook until the base is firm.
- Gently edge a spatula under the frittata and bravely turn it over. Continue to cook until set.
- Remove from the pan, drain on paper towel, cut into wedges and sprinkle with the chives.
- Serve with lemon wedges.
