    1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

    2

    In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until soft and translucent.

    3

    Remove the sausage from its casing and crumble it into the skillet with the onions. Cook for about 5 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally.

    4

    While the sausage cooks, crack 6 eggs into a large bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Whisk until well combined.

    5

    Add the browned sausage and onion mixture to the egg mixture. Stir in 150 grams of cheese, reserving a little to sprinkle on top.

    6

    Pour the entire mixture back into the skillet, if oven-safe, or transfer it to a greased baking dish.

    7

    Sprinkle the reserved cheese on top, and place the skillet or baking dish in the preheated oven.

    8

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is set and lightly golden on top.

    9

    Allow it to cool for a couple of minutes before slicing and serving.
