Pasta frittata

Cold tomato pasta set in egg, for slices you can take to work.

Before you cook

This is the second cook. I wrote it for a hardworking parent, a student, or anyone who cooked yesterday and needs the next meal to be short.

Ingredients

Tick them off as you go. They reset when you leave.

Shops near you

Use where you are, including when you travel. Nothing is sent until you tap. Or type a suburb. Prices are not listed, because they change every week.

Bagoong, Mang Tomas, Mama Sita’s, and fresh curry leaves are often missing from the big shops. A Filipino or Asian grocer is the backup. Do not swap bagoong for plain salt and expect the same dish.

Method

  1. 01

    Heat the oven to 180°C, or use a lid on the stove.

  2. 02

    Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt. Stir in the pasta.

  3. 03

    Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan. Pour the mix in and cook on low for 8 minutes, until the edge is set.

  4. 04

    Finish it in the oven for 8 minutes, or under a lid, until the middle is set. Cool a little, then cut it.

Times are a guide. If it needs another minute, give it another minute.

To serve

Eat it straight away, the way you just reheated it. This is already the whole plate.

Keeping it

The slices keep 2 days in the fridge. Eat them cold, or reheat until steaming.

Leftovers

  • I have not written a leftover dish for this yet.
