Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium ripe avocado
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture gently until completely blended and slightly frothy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt completely, coating the bottom of the skillet.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit undisturbed for 15-20 seconds to let the edges begin to set.
With a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges towards the center, creating soft curds. Continue this motion until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny.
Remove the skillet from the heat. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs to a perfect creamy consistency.
Halve and pit the avocado. Scoop the flesh out with a spoon and slice it into wedges.
Divide the scrambled eggs onto two plates. Arrange the avocado slices on the side.
Garnish the eggs with chopped fresh chives before serving for an added burst of flavor.
