Its totally yummy and I tested it out on my son who said it was ok so thumbs up there :)

3. Drain off the water and drink as a refreshing nettle tea, add honey to sweeten if required.
4. Chop the cooked nettle leaves.
5. Heat a knob of Butter or Margarine in the frying pan and fry the Onions till they soften.
6.  Beat the 2 Eggs and add a splash of Milk.
7. Pour the beaten mixture over the Onions in the frying pan and agitate to mix the Onions into the egg.
