Oven-roasted sweet potato & courgette tortilla
This tortilla is baked rather than fried making it healthier and easier to throw together. If you don’t have manchego, you can use cheddar or crumbled feta.
SERVES 4 PREP 10 mins COOK 1 hr EASY V
2 medium sweet potatoes (500g),
peeled and thinly sliced
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 courgette, thinly sliced
2 tbsp olive oil 6 eggs
50g crème fraîche
30g manchego or vegetarian
alternative, grated
1 tbsp chopped chives green salad, to serve
1 Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/ gas 5. Tip the sweet potato slices, onion and courgette into a medium non-stick baking dish (ours was 18cm x 30cm x 4cm), drizzle with the olive oil, season and mix everything together. Bake for 30 mins, tossing the veg halfway. The sweet potatoes should be tender, the courgette a little charred and the onion softened.
2 Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and the crème fraîche together along with a pinch of seasoning. Pour the beaten egg mixture over the sweet potato, onion and courgette. Sprinkle over the manchego and put back in the oven for 25-30 mins until the tortilla is just set. Sprinkle over the chives and eat hot or cold with salad.
