Ingredients

cooking-oil spray

1 small_piece red onion, sliced thinly

170 gram asparagus, trimmed, coarsely chopped

2 eggs

2 egg whites

2 tablespoon low-fat cottage cheese

40 gram baby rocket leaves

2 tablespoon lemon juice

2 teaspoon baby capers, rinsed, drained

Method

1.Preheat grill. In a small ovenproof frying pan, spray oil; cook onion over heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add asparagus; cook, stirring, 2 minutes.

2.In a medium jug, combine eggs, egg whites and cheese. Pour over asparagus mixture in pan. Cook, uncovered, about 5 minutes or until frittata is browned underneath.

3.Place pan under grill about 5 minutes or until frittata is set.

4.In a medium bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Serve frittata with salad.

If the handle of your frying pan is not heatproof, cover it with aluminium foil before placing it under the grill. Frittata is delicious served warm, but if you like it cold or want to take it to work, make it the evening before, keep it in the fridge overnight, then wrap it in plastic the next morning.
