Ingredients

  • 2 fresh farm eggs

  • salt and freshly cracked pepper

  • 2 tbsp of coarsely chopped herbs, chives or green part of spring onions, thyme, parsley, marjoram

  • 15g butter

  • 25-50g freshly grated cheese, maybe, Cheddar, Gruyere and Parmesan or a mixture

Method

  1. Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper, add the coarsely chopped herbs.

  2. Melt the butter in a medium to hot pan, when the butter is sizzling and melted, pour in the egg mixture.

  3. Tilt the pan to spread evenly. Allow to cook on the base for a minute or so, sprinkle some grated cheese over the surface and allow to cook for another minute or so.

  4. Fold in half to make a semi-circle, flip over so it colours slightly on both sides.

  5. Slide onto a warm plate and serve alone or with fresh chutneys of your choice, perhaps a green chutney or coconut and tomato.
