Ingredients:

6 large eggs
120ml water
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
105g plain flour
1/2 tsp salt
225g fresh cheese, diced
225g Ricotta cheese
225g hot or sweet sausage (thoroughly cooked and sliced)
225g salami or Prosciutto ham, diced
1 tbsp olive oil

Method:

Whisk together the eggs and water until thoroughly combined then mix in the flour, baking powder and salt. Finally add the diced cheese, Ricotta cheese, sausage and salami. Mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon to form a smooth batter.

Add the oil to a heavy oven-proof frying pan or skillet over fairly low heat. When hot add the batter and cook, stirring occasionally, until it forms a crust on its base. Continue cooking until browned on the bottom then carefully slide the frittata onto a large plate then invert it back into the pan to cook on the other side.

Continue cooking until browned then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 160°C and bake for about 20 minutes, or until cooked through. Slice into wedges and serve hot.
