Method

Step 1.

Preheat the fan-forced oven to 180°. In a bowl, whisk the eggs, add the herbs and spring onion and stir until well combined. Add the spices, and season well with salt. Add sifted flour and water. Mix well.

Step 2.

Generously brush a 30 x 15 cm non-stick oven pan with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, making sure to oil the sides. Pour green herb mixture into the pan, and spread evenly. Drizzle the remainder 2 tablespoons of olive oil on top and bake for approximately 25 minutes or until lightly golden.
