Chard Fritata

This is another classic from my old recipe book. 

INGREDIENTS;

• 500g chard
• 6 eggs
• ground black pepper
• 75g parmesan or similar hard cheese, grated
• 2 tbsp olive oil

METHOD:

• Wash the chard and chop roughly
• Beat the eggs and season, and beat in the cheese
• Heat the oil and add the chard, cook until it has wilted
• Add the eggs, reduce the heat and cook. When the bottom of the fritata is done, put the whole pan under a grill until the top is done.

An annotation in the book: ‘This is supposed to serve two or three people, but I can finish it in one go if I am very hungry.’
