Method
- Heat the oven to Mark 5/190°C. Heat the oil in a small non-stick ovenproof frying pan (about 23cm diameter), add the spring onions and cook for 1 min until softened. Add the potatoes and basil, and stir into the spring onions.
- Whisk the eggs with the lemon zest, season well and pour into the pan. Use a spatula to stir the mixture over a medium heat until about half the egg is cooked. Crumble over the goats’ cheese, lightly pressing it into the egg. Transfer to the oven and cook for 15-20 mins until the egg is just set in the middle. Eat hot, or leave to cool. Serve with a light summer salad.
