  • Under 20 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 2

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 large handful spinach
  • 1 small red pepper, finely sliced
  • 4 slices ham or cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, roughly chopped
  • 1⁄2 avocado, finely sliced (optional)

Method

Step 1

Break the eggs into a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well with a fork or whisk.

Step 2

Heat 1⁄2 tbsp of the butter in a medium non-stick frying pan, over low heat, until just melted.

Step 3

Pour half of the egg mix into the pan evenly, around 0.5cm thick. Fry for 1-2mins, then lightly lift the edges of the egg from the pan, so the egg doesn’t stick. Allow the egg to cook without flipping (the colour should be pale yellow and when you lightly shake the pan, the egg shouldn’t wobble)

Step 4

Place the cooked egg wrap on a plate and begin to cook the other wrap.

Step 5

When both wraps are cooked, fill them evenly with spinach, red pepper, ham or cheddar cheese, herbs, and the avocado (if using).
