Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 5 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • pinch nutmeg
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup yellow onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 cup diced ham
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss or cheddar cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or 9-inch pie dish.
  2. Whisk eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and 1 tbsp parsley until smooth.
  3. Sauté finely chopped yellow onion in olive oil until soft and translucent (4-5 mins). Spread onions in the prepared dish.
  4. Add diced ham and sprinkle ¾ cup of shredded cheese evenly over the ham.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the ham and cheese. Top with the remaining cheese.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until center is set and top is golden. Cool 5-10 mins before garnishing with remaining parsley and serving warm.

Notes

- Use good quality ham for the best flavor.
- Mix Swiss and cheddar cheese for optimal meltiness and taste.
- Don't overbake; the center should be just set, not dry.
