This superfood-packed smoked salmon and broccoli frittata is a perfect speedy lunch, brunch or dinner option. 

Taking a ludicrously speedy 15 minutes to make, it only needs four ingredients: salmon, broccoli, eggs and fresh dill (plus olive oil to fry and salt and pepper to season). No fresh dill? No problem - you can use dried instead, it will still taste delicious and be ready in less time than in takes to order a takeaway. This is a great budget dish, one of our great cheap family meals collection, though this one is also great if you just want to treat yourself. This recipe makes a big, generous portion for one, or you can share it with someone else and serve with a green salad. 

Ingredients

  • 100g broccoli, trimmed
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 25g smoked salmon trimmings, chopped
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill (or 1tsp freeze dried)
