Crack the eggs in a bowl then beat together before stirring in the cheese, thyme and basil. Now add the fish flakes and stir thoroughly to combine.
Place a 25cm diameter frying pan on the heat. Add the oil and when hot pour in the egg and fish mixture. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes, or until the eggs are set.
Take off the heat then place under a hot grill (broiler) and cook for about 4 minutes, or until the top is just set and golden brown.
