Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk or cream
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Whisk the Eggs:
    • Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the milk or cream. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy. The milk or cream adds richness and helps create a creamier texture.
  2. Heat the Pan:
    • Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt, but don’t let it brown. You want it to be foamy but not browned.
  3. Cook the Eggs:
    • Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Allow it to cook undisturbed for a few seconds until you see the edges starting to set.
  4. Stir Gently:
    • Use a spatula to gently push the eggs from the edges of the pan toward the center. Continue to do this in a slow, folding motion. This helps create soft, fluffy curds.
    • Avoid constant stirring. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for short periods to develop soft, large curds.
  5. Season and Finish:
    • When the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, remove the pan from the heat. The residual heat will finish cooking them.
    • Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Garnish and Serve:
    • If desired, garnish with chopped chives or parsley. Serve immediately while they are still warm and creamy.

Tips for Perfect Scrambled Eggs:

  • Low and Slow: Cooking over medium-low heat is key to achieving creamy eggs. High heat can cause them to cook too quickly and become dry.
  • Avoid Overcooking: Remove the eggs from the heat while they’re still slightly runny; they’ll continue to cook in the residual heat.
  • Butter vs. Oil: Using butter adds a rich flavor and helps with the creamy texture. If you prefer, you can use a mix of butter and oil.
Enjoy your perfect scrambled eggs! They’re great on their own or served with toast, avocado, or your favorite breakfast sides.
