Method
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6.
-
Heat a medium ovenproof frying pan until medium hot. Add the oil and onion and fry for 5 minutes until just softened.
-
Meanwhile, roughly chop half the ham, setting the rest to one side.
-
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the potatoes, chopped ham, garlic and ¾ of the parsley and season with freshly ground black pepper and whisk until combined.
-
Add the cooled onions to the mixture and stir well.
-
Return the frying pan to the heat and heat until medium hot. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and fry for 2 minutes, without stirring. You want the base to just set.
-
Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes until just set and golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and leave to cool for a couple of minutes before topping with the remaining ham and parsley.
-
Serve straightaway or allow to cool to room temperature, transfer to the fridge and eat cold.
