• Preheat oven to 350°F.

• Once the onions turn soft, add tomatoes.
• Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes soften.

• Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork until well mixed. Add a little salt an pepper.

CURRIED SPINCH QUICHE / FRITTATA

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs together, then add the spices and whisk very well.
• Add the remaining ingredients and pour into the crust (in a greased pie mold). You can keep some of the grated cheese aside to garnish the top of the quiche.
• Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes. Let it rest a while before cutting. If you aren`t using a pie crust, bake for about 25 minutes.
• ******Caramelized onions are amazing and sweet. You can make them by thinly-slicing yellow onions, then cooking them at medium-low heat on the stove top in some oil and/or margarine. The longer and lower heat the better, but you can bring up the heat to make them quicker. It can take 15-45 minutes. Don`t stir them too often, you want them to brown underneath. Once they`re getting nice and brown, add some brown sugar, stir, and then add a bit of water. This will get all that delicious sticky flavor from the pan into your onions. If you don`t want to go through the trouble, you can just add thinly-sliced yellow onion and brown sugar to your mixture instead.

CURRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Hard boil the eggs, using your favorite method. Cool slightly and peel. Cut them in half lengthwise.
• Melt the butter in a frying pan and saute the onion and garlic, until onion is just soft.
• Stir in the curry powder, tomato paste, water, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Allow the mixture to cook over a low heat until it is just bubbling.
• Add egg halves to onion mixture and stir gently, until reheated through. Add a little more water if sauce gets too thick.
• Add lemon zest and parsley. Stir again and serve while hot.

CRAB FRITTATA

• Add the capsicum and cook a few minutes more.
• Pour over the egg mix and scatter the crab across the top.
• Cook gently for about 5 minutes or until almost set through, then place under a griller (broiler) to brown the top. Serve at once.
