Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 slice Bread (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Chives or Parsley (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is fully combined and slightly frothy.
Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan on low heat and add the butter. Let it melt slowly, but do not brown it.
Once the butter has melted, pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently with a silicone or wooden spatula, making slow, sweeping motions across the bottom and edges of the pan.
Cook the eggs on low heat, stirring occasionally. Be patient as the mixture gradually thickens and forms soft curds. Avoid overcooking to keep the eggs creamy and tender.
When the eggs are softly set and slightly runny, remove the pan from heat. The residual heat will continue to cook them perfectly.
Toast one slice of bread, if desired, and serve the eggs on top or alongside the toast.
Garnish with chopped chives or parsley for an extra burst of flavor (optional). Serve immediately and enjoy!
