Ingredients
- 4 Eggs
- 1/4 Cup milk
- Small bunch fresh chopped basil
- 1/2 Cup mozzarella grated
- Arugula leaves (optional
- Salt
- Pepper
- 2 Tablespoons butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs and milk. Whisk until light and foamy, about 1 - 2 minutes. Add the chopped basil and season with salt and pepper.
- In an 8 inch non skillet set over medium heat, melt the butter and tilt to coat the pan. Pour in the egg mixture. Using a rubber spatula, start lifting the sides and tilting the pan little by little to let the egg cook evenly. Do this for about 5 - 8 minutes. When the eggs have almost set, evenly spread over the cheese. Allow the cheese to melt, 1 - 2 minutes. Fold over in thirds and remove from pan. Serve immediately.
