• Add the cubed potatoes, green onions, and garlic. Season with kosher salt, coriander, Aleppo pepper, paprika, and turmeric. Cook, tossing regularly, for about 5 to 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through (manage your heat to make sure the garlic does not burn).
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and fresh herbs. Add a big pinch of kosher salt and a little baking powder (about ¼ teaspoon), if you like.
• Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes in the skillet and watch for the edges and bottom to settle a bit (about 3 to 4 minutes or so).

For a few seconds, gently stir the egg mixture with a heat resistant rubber spatula (as if you were going to make scrambled eggs) and then swirl the eggs in the pan to make a nice round appearance. Reduce the heat to avoid any color or scorching. Continue cooking for about 1 minute. The eggs will be set on the bottom, but slightly liquid on top.
