Steps:
- Heat oil in a large, shallow pan that can be used under the broiler.
- Add the leeks and fry them gently for about 5 minutes, until they are just beginning to soften.
- If using fresh spinach, add it to the pan containing the leeks and cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat, until spinach has just wilted.
- Beat the eggs with a whisk, in a large bowl.
- Add the leek and spinach mixture (or the leeks with the thawed frozen spinach), then stir in the scallions, with all the herbs and nuts.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the mixture into the pan and cover with a lid or foil.
- Cook over very gently heat for 25 minutes, or until set.
- Remove the lid and brown the top under a hot broiler.
- Serve cut into 8 wedges with a green salad, or serve cut into small bite sized pieces as an appetizer.
- Can be served hot or cold.
