Method
 

  2. Prepare the Oven
  3. Preheat the oven to 170°C / 340°F. Lightly grease a round baking dish.
  4. Soften the Vegetables
  5. Heat olive oil in a pan. Gently sauté vegetables until softened, not browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  6. Mix the Base
  7. In a bowl, whisk eggs with milk, salt, pepper, and herbs until just combined.
  8. Assemble
  9. Spread vegetables evenly in the baking dish. Pour the egg mixture over the top. Add cheese lightly if using.
  10. Bake

  12. Rest Before Serving
