Instructions: 

  • First things first, place a medium-sized nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Pour in 1 tbs of olive oil and then add in the grated potatoes. Spread the potatoes out and let them fry in the pan undisturbed for about 90 seconds. You want to see some browning.
  • Once potatoes start to brown, add in the leeks and spinach and give a quick stir. Season with salt.
  • Turn the oven broiler on high.
  • Pour the scrambled eggs into the pan and let bubble away. Let cook on the pan for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture is about 80-90% cooked. Next add in the cherry tomatoes and the cheddar cheese.
  • Make sure the oven rack is as close to the broiler as possible, and then slide the pan under the heat until the top is set. Around 60 seconds.
  • Remove from the oven and drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, and finally garnish with fresh basil.
  • Enjoy!
