Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 200 grams raw prawns (peeled and deveined)
- 100 grams baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 pieces garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk thoroughly with the milk, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the prawns and sprinkle them with smoked paprika. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and fully cooked through. Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside.
Step 3
In the same pan, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4
Add the baby spinach to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove the spinach and set aside.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low, pour the whisked eggs into the pan, and gently stir with a spatula, moving the eggs around frequently to create soft, creamy curds.
Step 6
When the eggs are nearly set but still slightly runny, fold the cooked prawns and spinach back into the pan. Gently mix to combine and warm through.
Step 7
Remove the pan from the heat immediately to avoid overcooking the eggs.
Step 8
Serve the huevos revueltos warm, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Pair with crusty bread or a light salad for a complete meal.
