Ingredients
-
4 large eggs
-
2 tablespoons milk or cream
-
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
-
Salt, to taste
-
Black pepper, to taste
-
Fresh herbs (optional, e.g., chives or parsley)
Instructions
-
Whisk the Eggs: In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (or cream), salt, and pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy.
-
Heat the Pan: Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add butter and let it melt, coating the pan.
-
Cook the Eggs: Pour in the egg mixture. Let sit for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing eggs from the edges toward the center.
-
Create Soft Curds: Continue stirring slowly until the eggs are just set but still slightly creamy.
-
Serve: Remove from heat immediately (they’ll finish cooking off the pan). Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve warm.
Notes
-
Creamier Eggs: Use heavy cream instead of milk for extra richness.
-
Extra Flavor: Add shredded cheese, cooked bacon bits, or sautéed veggies.
-
Cooking Tip: Keep heat low—cooking slowly ensures tender, fluffy eggs without overcooking.
-
Serving Suggestions: Enjoy with toast, avocado, smoked salmon, or breakfast potatoes.
-
Storage Tips: Best eaten fresh, but leftover eggs can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. Reheat gently.
