Ingredients

  • 200 g mushrooms, thinly sliced (£1)
  • 5 spring onions, thinly sliced (£0.55)
  • 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped (£0.55)
  • 150 g red Leicester or cheddar, coarsely grated (£3.00/2)
  • 12 eggs (£2.65)
  • 300 g cottage cheese (£0.79)
  • 1 small head of broccoli, finely chopped (£0.79)

Cupboard Essentials

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and Pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F
  • Air Fry the button mushrooms with 1 tbsp olive oil for 10-12 minutes at 205°C/400°F. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Coat the sheet tray in 1 tbsp olive oil, then scatter the chopped broccoli across the tray, distributed evenly.
  • Roast for 5 minutes whilst you prepare the egg mixture.
  • Whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, cheese, fresh chives, spring onions and air fried mushrooms in a large bowl. Season with salt and lots of pepper
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly over the broccoli on the tray.
  • Use a spatula to ensure the eggs are evenly spread across the pan, or tilt the tray so the egg pours towards the edges.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the middle has set completely. Remove from the oven and leave to stand for 5 minutes before slicing into 12 squares for serving.

Notes

  • Avoid overcooking eggs: Eggs are done when the center is firm and no longer jiggles, but should still be slightly set in the middle.
  • Grease the pan: Prevent sticking by evenly greasing the pan before adding the egg mixture.
  • Consider mixture thickness: Thicker egg mixtures take longer to cook through; use a smaller sheet tray with higher edges if necessary.
  • Use a rimmed baking sheet: Ensure the baking sheet has a rim to contain the egg mixture while cooking.
  • Prepare vegetables beforehand: Air fry the mushrooms and partially bake the broccoli to prevent sogginess, as noted in the recipe method.
