Method

Heat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/gas 4. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, then add the sweet potatoes and cook for 10 minutes or until nearly tender. Drain.
Heat a 23cm ovenproof frying pan over a medium heat. Add a glug of oil, then fry the onion for a few minutes or until it starts to colour. Add the spring greens and fry for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. Add the drained sweet potato along with the chilli and garlic, then lower the heat and cook for 5 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until combined, then season with salt and pepper. Add the peas and goat’s cheese, then mix again. Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables in the frying pan and stir a little to combine. Transfer to the oven and cook for 15 minutes or until set. Turn out the frittata, slice into wedges and serve with a bitter leaf salad tossed in a lemony dressing.
