Ingredient Notes

This frittata requires just four main ingredients: 6 large eggs, 1 cup of chopped spinach, 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese, and 2 tablespoons of Thai fish sauce. Substitute the spinach with kale or any leafy greens you prefer. For a vegetarian option, use a plant-based feta. Thai fish sauce adds depth, but soy sauce or tamari can work in a pinch.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and fish sauce until well combined.
  2. Fold in the chopped spinach and crumbled feta cheese, mixing until evenly distributed.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into a greased air fryer-safe pan.
  4. Cook in the air fryer for 12-15 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed and set in the middle.
  5. Let it cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.

Things I’ve Learned

I’ve found that using fresh spinach provides a vibrant flavor and texture. If the frittata puffs up too much, that’s okay; it will settle as it cools. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer or microwave until warm. You can make a big batch ahead of time for busy mornings!
