Method
Cut the peppers into thin strips and halve the cherry tomatoes. Beat the 2 eggs and the egg whites with a pinch of salt, the grated Parmesan (if using) and the torn basil.
Heat the olive oil in a 24 cm non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the pepper strips for 7 minutes, stirring, until soft and lightly golden. Add the cherry tomatoes for the last minute.
Pour in the eggs, spread the vegetables evenly and cook over low heat for 5 minutes, until the edges are set and the top is still slightly runny.
Slide the frittata onto a plate, flip it back into the pan and cook for 2 minutes more, or put a lid on and cook until the top is set.
Let it rest for 2 minutes, cut into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature.
