Meanwhile, lightly beat the eggs with the milk.

Step 3

When the vegetables are fairly soft, make sure they are evenly distributed across the pan, turn the heat down fairly low, and pour over the egg mixture.

Step 4

Cook over a low heat for a few minutes, then move the pan under a medium grill (broiler) for a few more minutes. Continue to alternate between the two until the eggs are cooked through.

Step 5

Turn the grill down fairly low.
