Ingredients:

6 eggs, beaten
2 scallions, chopped
¼ cup milk
Fresh herbs, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 leek, thoroughly cleaned and chopped
Pinch of red pepper flakes
1/2 bunch kale, destemmed and leaves thinly sliced

1. Crack the eggs and add to a mixing bowl. Beat eggs with a whisk. Add the chopped scallions, milk, chopped herbs and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a large stick-free frying pan on medium high heat. When the oil is hot, add leeks and red pepper flakes. Cook for a couple minutes.
