BAKED BEAN FRITTATA

This dish is for you Stan and Elaine Towers . I was in Churchill Woolworths and Stan saw me placing a can of baked beans into my basket, after exchanging greetings , Stan pointed to the baked beans and suggested I maybe having baked beans on toast ,not quite but a little more substantial . What I did was go home and prepared baked bean frittata , hope you guys enjoy this ... Ingredients you will need , 3 potatoes peeled and sliced , 1 sweet potato , peeled and sliced ,1 can of baked beans ( 420 gm ), 2 eggs well beaten , 150 gm of bacon pieces , 1 small onion peeled and sliced , 1 tbs of minced garlic , a glug of oil / 1 dsp of ghee or butter/ marg( your choice ) , grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tbs of dried parsley . I x ovenproof quiche dish , sprayed with cooking oil . Preheat your oven to 180 deg C . First step is to boil /steam the potatoes and sweet potato together until tender , then drain and mash until smooth . While the potatoes are cooking , cook your sliced onion in a small pan with oil / or whatever your choice until tender over a medium heat . Now line your quiche pan with the mash mixture , base and sides . Very lightly sprinkle the sides and base with nutmeg . In a separate bowl mix together the bacon pieces with the beaten eggs and the canned baked beans , cooked onions , minced garlic and dried parsley . Pour the mixture in the potato lined dish and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese . Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until set and golden . I served the baked bean frittata with lightly buttered toast . You were right Mr Towers , baked beans on toast ( Noelene's version ).
