Step 1

Step 3
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat; add the onion and garlic and cook for five minutes or until softened.
Step 4
Add the red capsicum and cook for a further 3-5 minutes or until softened.
Step 5
Place the ham evenly over sweet potato base and spoon over onion mixture
Step 6
Mix the eggs, milk and cheddar until combined, season to taste and pour over vegetable mixture.
Step 7
Cover the pan with foil and bake at 180°C for 20 minutes, remove foil and cook for a further 10 minutes or until potato is cooked through and filling has just set.
