# What You’ll Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 2 medium waxy potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (about 10.5 oz)
02 - 4 spring onions, finely sliced with white and green parts separated

→ Dairy

03 - 3.5 oz mature Cheddar cheese, grated
04 - ¼ cup whole milk

→ Eggs

05 - 6 large eggs

→ Pantry

06 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
07 - ½ teaspoon salt
08 - ¼ teaspoon black pepper

# Step-by-Step:

01 - Set oven to 375°F.
02 - Heat olive oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add sliced potatoes with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and lightly golden, approximately 8-10 minutes.
03 - Add the white parts of the spring onions to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until softened.
04 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, remaining salt, and black pepper until well combined. Stir in half the grated Cheddar and the green parts of the spring onions.
05 - Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes in the skillet. Gently stir to distribute the vegetables evenly throughout.
06 - Sprinkle the remaining Cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
07 - Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and set in the center.
08 - Allow the frittata to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
