Directions
Melt butter in an 8 inch pan and add scallions, cilantro and corn.
Cook for a minute or so, add a splash of water and continue cooking until the corn is tender.
Season with salt.
Beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of water, then pour them into the pan with the corn and scramble them gently with a fork.
Add the grated cheese at the end and stir it in with a few strokes of the fork.
While the eggs are cooking, warm the tortillas in a dry pan.
Serve them hot with the eggs and salsa or extra cilantro, as desired.
