  2. Cut the salmon into thin strips, you may find this easier to do with a scissors.
  3. Crumble the Wensleydale into small pieces about the size of a marble
  4. Beat together the eggs with the water and seasoning. Heat the olive oil in a 20cm (8in) non stick frying pan .

Cook over a low heat for 5 minutes until you begin to see the egg setting at the edges of the pan.
  5. Preheat the grill to a medium heat. Place the pan under the grill (protecting the handle with double thickness of foil if it is made from plastic or wood) and grill for 3 to 4 minutes until top is set and pale golden brown.
  6. Using a wooden spatula, carefully transfer to a serving plate and cut into wedges to serve.
  7. Serve with vine roasted tomatoes.
