I overgrated and&nbsp;I decided the left over courgettes would be great for making into a frittata or was it&nbsp;a tortilla? I had to check what the difference is between them&#8230;thanks to google&#8230;this is the difference.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The main&nbsp;difference between&nbsp;a&nbsp;tortilla&nbsp;and a&nbsp;frittata&nbsp;is in how the eggs are finished. Both preparations begin with the eggs and filling, cooked stovetop in a frying pan. But whereas the&nbsp;frittata&nbsp;is finished in the oven, Spanish&nbsp;tortillas&nbsp;are flipped and finished on the stovetop. &nbsp;Google<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So in the end I made a frittata, I didn&#8217;t realise that was the only difference between&nbsp;them is that it?!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This frittata was so simple and easy to make and would make a easy dinner if your busy. It does take a long time to cook, but prep work is simple and you can leave it in the oven whilst you get on with other things.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can also experiment with flavours and ingredients as long as you have enough eggs. I think this is a good way of getting rid of vegetables that are stuck in the back of the fridge. To make it more luxurious is to add some good cheeses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/?attachment_id=2897\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2897\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
