How to do it

1.    Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2.    Combine honey and lemon juice, and coat pear wedges. Roast pears in
preheated oven until cooked and caramelised, 15 – 20 minutes. Remove from oven and
set aside.

3.    For the caramelized onion, follow steps 2 and 3 in the Mexican twist
burger recipe.

4.    Heat a small non-stick frying pan over medium heat and add the beaten
eggs. Season. Scatter over the goat’s cheese and roasted pears. Allow the frittata
to set, about 4 minutes. Place in the preheated oven to finish cooking, about 6
minutes.

5.    Remove from oven and add the caramelised onion, almonds, cherry
tomatoes and rocket. Serve immediately with rye toast.
