I's hard to tell when the bottom is browned unless you have a see-through pan... I burned mine a little but it was still ok.

Easier way to do this - and added flavour! slice left over new potatoes (or tinned work just as well!!) whisk eggs with cream and seasoning and pour into a square tin to cook in the oven - no checking to see if bottom is browned!! Add other ingredients like chopped spring onions, bacon, mushrooms, peppers, cheese (goats cheese goes great with broad beans!) - anything you like! Basically this is just a quiche without pastry! Have been cooking my version with all of the listed ingredients for years and it always goes down well at parties!

Re above comment suggesting cooking in the oven, what temperature would you cook it at and is it ok in a fan oven?
