Ingredients

225g sweet potato (peeled weight), cut into 1cm cubes

100g Smart Price Peas (frozen)

2 tbsp sunflower oil

1 small red onion, chopped

1 red pepper, de-seeded and sliced

1 level tsp ground cumin

1/2 level tsp dried Asda Crushed Chillies

400g can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

6 large eggs, lightly beaten

Salad, to serve

Bread, to serve

Method

1
Add the sweet potato to a pan of boiling water, bring back to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the peas. Cook for another 5 minutes until the potato is tender. Drain.
2
Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion until soft. Add the pepper and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
3
Stir in the cumin and crushed chillies and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
4
Add the chickpeas and stir to mix evenly. Pour the eggs into the pan. Cook on a low heat, without stirring, until the eggs are almost set, with only a thin layer left uncooked on top.
5
Put the omelette under a pre-heated grill and cook until set. Serve with the salad and bread.
