Ingredients

  • 8 rashers smoked streaky bacon

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 6 eggs, beaten

  • 1 large avocado, halved, stoned, peeled and cut into chunky slices

  • 1 small red chilli, finely chopped

  • 1 heaped tsp Dijon mustard

  • 2 tsp red wine vinegar

  • 200g bag mixed salad leaves (we used watercress, rocket & spinach)

  • 12 baby plum tomatoes, halved

Method

  1. Heat a 24cm non-stick ovenproof pan and fry the bacon rashers in batches on a high heat until cooked through and crisp. Chop 4 roughly and break the other 4 into large pieces. Set aside on kitchen paper and clean the pan.

  2. Heat the grill to high. Warm 1 tbsp oil in the pan. Season the eggs, add the chopped bacon and pour into the pan. Cook on a low heat for around 8 mins or until almost set. Arrange the avocado slices and bacon shards on top. Grill briefly for about 4 mins until set.

  3. Mix the remaining oil, the chilli, mustard, vinegar and seasoning in a large bowl. Toss in the salad leaves and tomatoes. Serve alongside the frittata, cut into wedges.
