Notes

  1. First, you’re going to beat your eggs together with salt and pepper and some finely chopped onion. Pour the egg mixture into your pan and fill with whatever you like!
  2. Broccoli - when using broccoli soak it in hot water and salt for at least 10 minutes and take out. This softens the broccoli and cleans it of any worms.
  3. Alternatively you could cook the garlic, onions and toppings in a pan before adding it to the egg mixture.
  4. For kids you can also add in a little cooked rice or cooked millets.
  5. For a higher protein option use half the number of yolks to egg whites. So 3 egg yolks and 6 whites. Adjust topping quantity as per egg quantity.
