Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 large yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion into even rings.
In a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes, or until they are deeply golden and caramelized. Reduce the heat to medium-low if they start to brown too quickly. Season with a pinch of salt and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the heavy cream, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper until fully combined.
In a nonstick skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over low heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook on low heat, stirring gently and consistently with a spatula, until the eggs are soft, creamy, and just set. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.
Once the eggs are done, remove the skillet from the heat.
To serve, divide the creamy scrambled eggs between two plates and top each with a generous spoonful of caramelized onions.
If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy this comforting dish!
