This is the most beautiful one pan frittata I’ve seen and I looove the fact that it’s a take on the Indian Masala Omelette! I’ve been super busy this week because we are moving houses and that comes with making sure everything’s packed, all the bills are paid, all the right people have been told, blah blah. Cooking has been the last thing on my mind, more like sitting in the middle of a pile of clothes wondering if I’m ever going to wear that blue shirt which has been lying untouched in my wardrobe for 5 years now. Nah, it goes in the I’m-too-fat-for-this pile.
While I’m shifting and not doing too much cooking, I wanted to make sure you guys still have some wonderful recipes coming your way and my good blogger friends have offered to help me out!
