Sunday Morning Asian Frittata

Ingredients

1 tablespoon peanut oil
3 scallions minced
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 garlic cloves minced
1 cup diced red pepper
4 eggs
8 egg whites
2 tablespoons lite soy sauce
1 cup fresh bean sprouts
1 cup trimmed and halved fresh snow peas
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Method

In a large nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Add the scallions, ginger, and garlic and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the red pepper and saute for 3 minutes.

Mix together the eggs and soy sauce. Add to the skillet. Cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes until eggs are set on bottom.

Place the bean sprouts and snow peas over the eggs. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Place in the oven at 350 degrees and bake just until top is set, about 8 to 10 minutes. Watch carefully that eggs are just cooked and do not become tough.

Set oven to broil. Broil the frittata for 30 seconds just to give it a nice browned color. Serve in wedges.
