- Clean out the pan from the meatballs to use for the eggs.
- Whisk together eggs, milk and nutmeg, season with salt and pepper.
- Heat butter in the frying pan set the heat to medium high, when butter begins to foam, add the egg mixture and immediately turn the heat to low. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, continuously stir the eggs scrapping the bottom of the pan, forming very small curds. When no liquid remains (this will take a few minuted), but eggs are still very soft, remove from heat and fold in mint. Immediately remove to serving dish or plates, if you leave in the pan the eggs will dry out.
- Top eggs with meatballs and enjoy!
