Spinach and Paneer Mini Frittatas
This bitesize Indian version of frittatas is perfect for breakfast or as a daytime snack. Hyderabad-based nutritionist, Dr. Lakshmi K, gives this classic Italian dish an Indian makeover.
This Indo-Italian egg dish is as simple as it is versatile, and delicious. While it is tempting to fill up a frittata with a whole lot of ingredients, this recipe aims to keep things simple and allow each ingredient to shine on its own. The spinach here is the star. Its mild flavour is embellished with sweet paprika, the smoothness of cottage cheese, a hint of rosemary, and the heat of chilli flakes. You can, however, mix it up with ingredients of your choice.

01In a bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Add the rest of the ingredients and combine.
02Preheat the oven to 350° F. Take a muffin tray and grease with a little oil.
03Spoon the batter into the muffin tray. The batter should fill up three quarters of each mould.

Take a toothpick and prick the frittata. If it comes out clean, the frittata is ready.
