Method

  1. Cook the sweet potato in boiling water for about 8-10 minutes until it is tender, adding the broccoli for the last 5 minutes. Drain well. Heat a little oil in a small, deep frying pan and add the garlic, sweet potato and broccoli. Toss together then spread the vegetables in an even layer in the frying pan and pour on the egg. Cook until the bottom is set and then dot with the goat's cheese and grill very briefly until just set. Serve with salad, or in a wholemeal pitta bread with salad.

    Quick and delicious! I added some bacon lardons to give some extra taste, it was excellent. Not sure if that is why I ended up having to use 5 eggs instead of 2. Will definitely repeat again.

    Like the previous reviewer: I too ended up using 5 eggs. This was good, but a bit bland. I also added a bit of bacon to add flavour. The eggs puffed up very lovely under the grill, and it was a nice meal--but if I were to do it again I would add salt and pepper to the beaten eggs (perhaps this was implied in the recipe?) and some other sort of seasoning--perhaps fresh shredded basil or even rosemary... or some diced sundried tomato would have been nice. Just something to give it a bit more flavour.

    The 2 egg ratio has to be a mistake! I also needed 5 for complete coverage of the vegetables. A home-made chutney, relish or harissa gives it the kick it needs.

    As per the previous entries I think the no. of eggs is a mistake. I used 6 medium eggs for this one.
