Ingredients
flour tortillas
4 (60g each, warmed according to package instructions)
green shallots
3 (finely sliced)
red chile
1 teaspoon (chopped)
eggs
5 (lightly beaten)
skim milk
2 tablespoons (used to beat with eggs)
low-fat cheese
60g (shredded or crumbled)
fresh coriander leaves
2 tablespoons (chopped)
Instructions
1
Warm the flour tortillas according to the instructions on the packaging until they are pliable and soft.
2
In a non-stick saucepan, lightly spray a bit of olive oil to coat the surface and heat over medium heat.
3
Add the finely sliced green shallots and chopped red chile to the pan. Sauté for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are softened and fragrant.
4
In a mixing bowl, lightly beat the eggs together with skim milk, adding salt and pepper to taste for seasoning.

Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan with the shallots and chilies. Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently stir the eggs for about 3 minutes or until they are just cooked through but still creamy.
6
Remove the pan from heat and let the eggs sit for a moment as they will continue to cook slightly from residual heat.
7
Place the warmed tortillas on individual serving plates, then generously spoon the scrambled egg mixture onto each tortilla.
8
Sprinkle the low-fat cheese and freshly chopped coriander over the top of the egg mixture.
9
Carefully roll up each tortilla to enclose the filling and serve immediately, either on their own or with a side of salsa for added flavor.
